Hello, I want to work on this issue.

[krishhteja]

@vikaskr-07 Yes. I've built a similar application during covid. I'll push it here by this weekend and @zaid-patel we can together make it better

[krishhteja]

@vikaskr-07 Here's the example I was talking about. @zaid-patel if you wish to, you can use this as base and improve it.

@krishhteja Could you please give some overview on what all features are we covering and how this can be backend only module which is easy and feasible to work with any client (web, mobile, desktop etc)? Also, What are we planning to use to exchange ice candidates between peers?

[krishhteja]

@wajeshubham The idea of this is not a backend only change. It's going to involve a landing page / video screen in front-end too.

The idea is to use simple-peer and build a small demo application
