# PeerPresent

**PeerPresent** is a Progressive Web App for running **interactive presentations** over the network. The presenter shares slides in real time with the team via **WebRTC** (PeerJS). Viewers stay in sync with the presenter and can **interact**—answer quizzes, respond to exercises, and participate in hands-on sections.
[](https://github.com/bkrajendra/peerpresent/actions/workflows/pages/pages-build-deployment)
Demo: https://peerpresent.rajendrakhope.com?mode=presenter
## Features
- **Real-time sync** — Slides and navigation stay in sync for all viewers (WebRTC via PeerJS).
- **Presenter / viewer roles** — One presenter controls the deck; others join with a 4-digit room code.
- **Interactive elements** — Quizzes, exercises, and responses from the audience.
- **PWA** — Installable on desktop and mobile; works offline once loaded (where supported) - TODO
- **No backend required** — Signaling uses PeerJS cloud; media is peer-to-peer.
## Quick start: use the demo

No setup needed. Use the hosted instance:
- **Demo:** [https://peerpresent.rajendrakhope.com](https://peerpresent.rajendrakhope.com)
1. **Presenter:** Open the link http://localhost:8080?mode=presenter → choose **Start as Presenter** → note the **4-digit room code**.
2. **Team:** Open the same link http://localhost:8080 on their devices → enter the **room code** → **Join Session**.
3. Presenter advances slides; everyone sees the same slide and can respond to quizzes/exercises.
> Note: For Cloud Instance.
> Presenter: https://peerpresent.rajendrakhope.com?mode=presenter
> Clients: https://peerpresent.rajendrakhope.com

## Run locally
You need a local HTTP server (the app is static HTML/CSS/JS). Use either of the options below.
### Option 1: Node (http-server)
**Prerequisites:** [Node.js](https://nodejs.org/) and npm.
```bash
# From the project root
cd /path/to/peerpresent
# One-time: install http-server (or use npx and skip install)
npm install -g http-server
# OR just use npx (no global install):
# npx http-server
# Start server (serves on http://localhost:8080 by default)
http-server -p 8080
# If using npx:
# npx http-server -p 8080
```
Then open **http://localhost:8080** in your browser.
### Option 2: Python
**Prerequisites:** Python 3.
```bash
# From the project root
cd /path/to/peerpresent
# Python 3
python3 -m http.server 8080
# Or, if python points to Python 3:
python -m http.server 8080
```
Then open **http://localhost:8080** in your browser.

## How to present
1. **Presenter**
- Open the app (demo or your local URL with ?mode=presenter).
- Click **Start as Presenter**.
- Share the **4-digit room code** (e.g. on screen or in chat).
2. **Viewers (team)**
- Open the same app URL on their device (without ?mode=presenter).
- Enter the **4-digit code** and click **Join Session**.
- They will sync to the current slide and stay in sync.
3. **During the session**
- Use **arrow keys** or on-screen controls to move slides (presenter only).
- On quiz/exercise slides, viewers can submit answers; results can be shown to the group.
---
## Requirements
- **Browser:** Modern browser with WebRTC support (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge).
- **Network:** Presenter and viewers must be able to reach the PeerJS signaling server (`0.peerjs.com`) and each other (NAT/firewall may affect some networks).
- **HTTPS:** For full PWA install and service worker, use HTTPS. Local development is fine over **http://localhost**.
---
## Tech stack
- **Frontend:** HTML, CSS, JavaScript (vanilla).
- **Real-time:** [PeerJS](https://peerjs.com/) (WebRTC abstraction).
- **Hosting:** Static files only; no app backend. Demo hosted at [peerpresent.rajendrakhope.com](https://peerpresent.rajendrakhope.com).
