Collabify gives you voice, webcam and screensharing in the browser with no downloads needed.</p> <p><strong>Why?</strong><br> It all started as a project during a course in university where myself and Alexander Lööf got the opportunity to try and build whatever we wanted, with whatever technology we wanted to learn. So we figured - <strong><em>Let's build a meeting app, that be fun right?</em></strong> 🤷‍♂️.</p> <p><strong>Stack</strong><br> React, TypeScript, MobX, Styled Components, Apollo GraphQL, WebRTC, Socket.IO, Node and all that kind of good stuff! 🍦🍩🍰🍬</p> <p><strong>How did it go?</strong><br> It was a challenge! 😵☕ We were often deep down in documentation figuring out webRTC or [insert random from mentioned tech stack]. Sometimes feeling like 🐱‍👤's and other times like 🤯 || 🤬 || 🐒. You can take a look at the app by clicking the link below.</p> <p><strong><a href="https://collabify.app">https://collabify.app</a></strong></p> <p><strong>What's next?</strong><br> We will keep working on this app while we are still at university. We have some ideas we want to try out and we dream of turning this into a little SaaS platform. If anything it's a fun project that have taught us alot about web development.</p> <p><strong><em>Tell us what you think! 💖</em></strong> </p> showdev webdev discuss javascript
