Showdev: We are building an online meeting app - Collabify πŸŽ‰πŸŽ¦πŸ–ΌπŸŽ­

Hello Dev.to community!

As the title says we are building a little meeting app that we call Collabify. Collabify gives you voice, webcam and screensharing in the browser with no downloads needed.

Why?
It all started as a project during a course in university where myself and Alexander LΓΆΓΆf got the opportunity to try and build whatever we wanted, with whatever technology we wanted to learn. So we figured - Let's build a meeting app, that be fun right? πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ.

Stack
React, TypeScript, MobX, Styled Components, Apollo GraphQL, WebRTC, Socket.IO, Node and all that kind of good stuff! 🍦🍩🍰🍬

How did it go?
It was a challenge! πŸ˜΅β˜• We were often deep down in documentation figuring out webRTC or [insert random from mentioned tech stack]. Sometimes feeling like πŸ±β€πŸ‘€'s and other times like 🀯 || 🀬 || πŸ’. You can take a look at the app by clicking the link below.

What's next?
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.

Tell us what you think! πŸ’–
