Bi-Directional Replication in PostgreSQL

Semab Tariq does a bit of replication:

Bi-directional replication, often referred to as multi-master replication, allows data to be written and read from multiple database nodes. This means that changes made on one node are automatically replicated to the other node, and vice versa. This setup ensures that all nodes have the same data, providing high availability and fault tolerance.

This example covers replicating a single table, but the code itself was rather easy to follow. I imagine things get a bit more challenging when you add some of the more common types of complexity to this, including what happens when your app tries to insert the same record on both nodes.
