Welcome to the Media Soup Learning Demo repository! This project serves as an educational platform to demonstrate the use of Media Soup for real-time media communication. It includes both a Next.js client application and a backend server, organized as separate folders within the same repository.
The repository is structured into two main folders:
- Client: A Next.js application located in the
/clientfolder, designed to run onlocalhost:3000. - Backend: A server located in the
/backendfolder, running onlocalhost:4000.
Both components are crucial for the demo's functionality and should be run concurrently.
Before starting, ensure you have installed:
-
Node.js (latest stable version recommended)
-
npm (usually installed with Node.js)
- Clone this repository to your local machine.
- Open a terminal and navigate to the cloned repository's root directory.
- Change directory to the backend folder:
cd backend. - Run
npm installto install all necessary dependencies. - Start the server by executing
npm run dev. - Verify that the server is active on
localhost:4000.
Important: Initialize the backend server first before starting the client.
- Open a new terminal and navigate to the repository's root directory.
- Change to the client folder:
cd client. - Execute
npm installto install dependencies. - After confirming the backend server is running, start the client with
npm run dev. - Access the client at
localhost:3000.
With both the server and client running, you can now explore the functionalities of the Media Soup Learning Demo via your web browser
on localhost:3000.
This setup allows you to understand the interaction between client and server in real-time media communication.
