Co-creation is a collaborative process in which two or more parties, including end users, jointly generate a product, design or piece of content rather than one party producing it for passive consumption by the others. It emphasises shared authorship and iterative feedback across the creative process, and is a common pattern in participatory design, open-source development and collaborative virtual environments. Co-creation is enabled by tools that support simultaneous, shared editing and by design methodologies that structure participant input.
