Demonstration of video working

Inspiration

We had the idea to make fast and easily accessible live video conferencing without the need for installing applications, with a lot of space for future functionality and bigger conferencing.

What it does

Our website allows you to do a video call together with one another person at the moment, though with a bit more work it can be extended to more people.

How we built it

We built it using Node.JS, Vite, WebRTC, HTML/CSS, and Bootstrap.

Challenges we ran into

We originally sought out to make a website where people can edit videos together, to allow video editors to work together from home without needing to send stuff back and forth. But then because of the scope of that project we shifted to making an online video conferencing platform with a focus on future functionality. We made it so thats is possible to call with one other person, however because we are all in different countries we were not able to get it working with the networks.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

Learned Vite for using in the project, which is very difficult to use.

What we learned

Don't try to learn new environments during a hackathon, its often better to stick with what you know or have experience with. We also spent a lot of time switching between different great ideas, which were often groundbreaking ideas but too great in scope.
