# talkhouse

WebRTC based peer to peer video calling and messaging web app build with MERN stack.

# Libraries used

- **`React`** for frontend

- **`Socket.io`** as signaling server and realtime communication 

- **`simple-peer`** for peer-to-peer WebRTC connections

- **`Express`** as server

- **`MongoDB`** for persistance of data

- **`Material UI`** for creating ui

- **`Redux`** for state management

- **`Typescript`** for type safety, cure for headache you get when props are flowing all over the app with no hint 

# Features

* User authentication and authorization

* Audio and Video Chat

* Messaging with storage of messages in the database

* Sending invitation to friends

* Able to accept or reject an invitation

* Online indicator

* Notify on typing

* Sceen sharing 

* Accept and reject an incoming call

**and more....**

## New Features added recently:

*  **`Group Chats`** Create group chats like in whats'app. Group Admins can add members to group and participants can leave the group.

*  Remove friend, ability to unfriend someone

* **`Talkhouse Spaces`** like Twitter spaces. You can host a space and any of your friends can join that space.

The **talkhouse spaces** are implemented using MESH topology to establish a peer-to-peer network between every person or client joining the space.

i.e, every person maintains a p2p connection with every other person in the room. 

## Docker

Running project through docker is recommended. You don't have to do any setup. Just one docker-compose command and boom project is up and running 😊 

```

docker-compose up --build

```

*Make sure you have docker installed*
