StreamMate

This project is based on the popular video conferencing application, Zoom, developed using Vanilla JavaScript. It leverages WebRTC for peer-to-peer video communication and Socket.IO for signaling and real-time communication between users. The application allows users to join video calls, create and join rooms, and communicate seamlessly with high-quality video and audio.

Features:

• Real-Time Video and Audio Communication: High-quality video and audio calling using WebRTC technology.
• Peer-to-Peer Connections: Direct peer-to-peer connections for efficient and low-latency communication.
• Room Creation and Joining: Users can create unique rooms and share room IDs to invite others.
• User Interface: Intuitive user interface for a seamless video calling experience.
• Signaling Server: Implementation of a signaling server using Socket.IO for establishing connections.
• Chat Functionality: Real-time text chat within the video call for enhanced communication.
• Mute/Unmute: Option to mute/unmute microphone and turn on/off video during the call.
• Screen Sharing: Ability to share your screen with other participants in the call.
• Responsive Design: Ensures a consistent experience across different devices and screen sizes.

Technologies Used:

• Vanilla JavaScript: Core language for building the application.
• WebRTC: For real-time peer-to-peer video and audio communication.
• Socket.IO: For real-time signaling and communication between users.
