Features

Local recording (Chrome desktop only)
RTMP live streaming with multiple participants
Screen sharing
Different layouts, and changing them during recording/live streaming

Even though it's possible with Daily, this app does not include:

HLS live streaming

Requirements

To use this demo, you will first need to create a Daily account. You will also need a Daily room URL, which you can get via two options in this demo:

To create new Daily rooms directly through this demo's UI, you will need your Daily API key, which can be found on the Developers page. This will be used in your environment variables. (Instructions below.)
Alternatively, you can use existing Daily rooms in the demo by pasting the room URL into the input. The room URL should be in this format to be valid: https://your-domain.daily.co/room-name, with daily-domain changed to your domain, and room-name changed to the name of the existing room you would like to use.

Running locally

To run this demo locally:

Install dependencies npm install
Start dev server npm start
Then open your browser and go to http://localhost:3000.

Creating new rooms locally

To create new rooms via the app UI while testing locally, follow these additional steps:

rename example.env to .env
add your Daily API key (available in the Daily dashboard) to .env
add the value local to the REACT_APP_ROOM_ENDPOINT variable in .env

REACT_APP_DAILY_API_KEY=your-daily-api-key
REACT_APP_ROOM_ENDPOINT=local

Restart your server, i.e. re-run npm start
