Clan Chat
A chat application inspired by discord with chat/audio/video call functionality
Clan-Chat is a Discord-like application inspired by a YouTube tutorial on creating a Discord clone using Next.js. Initially, the tutorial utilized Socket.IO and LiveKit for core functionalities. However, I decided to challenge myself by implementing WebSockets and WebRTC to manage real-time communication and live calls.
Key aspects of the project include: Real-Time Communication: Implemented using WebSockets for chat functionality. Live Calls: Exploring WebRTC to handle video and voice communication. System Architecture: Designing a multi-server setup to manage different aspects of the application: WebRTC Server: For handling live calls. WebSockets Server: For managing real-time chat. Next.js Application: Handling authentication and user flow.
