dTelecom Meet

Open-source video conferencing app created 100% by AI agent using dTelecom — a decentralized WebRTC platform with Solana-based node discovery.

Think Google Meet, but decentralized and self-hostable.

Live Demo | Documentation | LLM Resources

Deploy to Vercel

You only need two environment variables:

Variable	Description
API_KEY	Your dTelecom API key from cloud.dtelecom.org
API_SECRET	Your dTelecom API secret

Webhook URL and Solana network settings are configured automatically.

Features

• Video & audio conferencing — camera, microphone, screen sharing
• Pre-join preview — test your camera/mic before entering the room
• Host controls — kick and mute participants
• In-room chat — real-time text messaging via data channels
• Live participant count — see how many people are in a room before joining
• Webhook integration — SFU nodes push participant_joined / participant_left / room_finished events
• Decentralized — no single point of failure, SFU nodes discovered via Solana registry

Tech Stack

• Next.js 16 (App Router)
• React 19
• @dtelecom/components-react — LiveKitRoom, VideoConference, PreJoin, Chat
• @dtelecom/server-sdk-js — tokens, room service, webhook verification
• Tailwind CSS 4

Local Development

1. Get API keys

Sign up at cloud.dtelecom.org and grab your API Key and API Secret.

2. Clone and install

git clone https://github.com/dTelecom/dtelecom-meet.git
cd dtelecom-meet
npm install

3. Configure environment

cp .env.example .env.local

Edit .env.local:

API_KEY=<your-api-key>
API_SECRET=<your-api-secret>

4. Run

npm run dev

Open http://localhost:3000.

Webhooks locally

Webhooks enable live participant counts on the pre-join screen. On Vercel this works automatically. For local development, dTelecom SFU nodes can't reach localhost, so use cloudflared to create a tunnel:

brew install cloudflared
npm run tunnel

Set the printed URL as WEBHOOK_URL in .env.local and restart the dev server:

WEBHOOK_URL=https://random-words.trycloudflare.com/api/webhook
