How dyte works?

Dyte is based largely on the WebRTC protocol, and the features and optimisations we build on top of it.

Although the protocol is supposed to be peer-to-peer, it is not easy to build it reliably.

Anyone who has tried implementing it by themselves would know that the implementions get real messy, real fast.

To have a real working solution, servers with SFU, STUN, TURN, etc capabilities.

This is required to optimize for user bandwidth.

Also to optimize for performance.

Architecture

Here is the architecture of Dyte, and all the step that goes behind the scenes in setting up a meeting.

Using JS SDK

Initialising

Here are the steps to initialise the Dyte JS SDK

• Get meeting room name from the backend API
• Get participant token form the backend API
• Pass them as props to Dyte's React Component to initialize

Using JS React SDK

You can initialize a meeting in your React app, using this component, like below.

import { DyteMeeting } from "dyte-client";

function App() {
  return (
    <div className="App">
      <DyteMeeting
        onInit={(meeting) => {}}
        clientId={`orgId || clientId`}
        meetingConfig={{
          roomName: `roomName`,
          authToken: `authToken`,
        }}
      />
    </div>
  );
}

export default App;
