Challenges we ran into

I had limited knowledge on building real time live app, so I had to learn everything like socket.io, web RTC that took bit longer to learn. I was excited to complete all functionalities, but I could not do because I has limited time. I can ensure that I would have finish this completely if I can get few days more. However, I tried to do as much as I can.

What we learned
