Implement Live Session Functionality

[akshtshrma]

Problem Statement:

The BridgeLearn App currently lacks functionality for live sessions, which could improve the interactive experience for users, especially for learning or teaching sessions.

Proposed Feature:

I am planning to implement a live session feature for the app as part of Social Winter of Code. However, before starting the implementation, I would like to clarify a few points regarding the preferred approach for this feature.

Questions:

1. Preferred Technology:

   • Do you have any preference for the technology we should use for live sessions? For example:
     • Jitsi Meet: Free and open-source, with a public server that can be used without costs.
     • WebRTC: Can be self-hosted for free, but may require more setup and customization.
     • Other solutions: Do you have any preferred services or platforms?

2. Session Features:

   • What specific features do you want the live session to include? (e.g., video/audio chat, screen sharing, real-time chat, user management, etc.)
   • Should there be a limit on the number of participants in a session?

3. Cost Constraints:

   • Are there any concerns about external costs (e.g., hosting fees, third-party services) that I should consider when selecting the technology?

Additional Considerations:

• If there are any specific tools, frameworks, or design choices you'd like me to consider while implementing this feature, please let me know.

Looking forward to your suggestions and guidance.

@akshtshrma You can start working on it

@akshtshrma You can select any free and open source technologies that you wish . You can include video/audio chat for now . We can work on the other features like real time chat and user management part in the next issue

I am going to use Jitsi meet to implement the above mentioned features and would let you know once i have implemented it.

@akshtshrma After implementing it , attach a demonstration video ( screen record ) while sending a Pull Request . You can use VEED online video compressor to get it under 10 MB without losing quality
