This is the first post in our series on how to build your own webinar platform using Daily Prebuilt and a custom chat widget. As more services move online, Daily has noticed an influx of startups needing to find more efficient ways to connect with customers. Webinars provide a great solution for engaging with potential new customers, allowing companies to introduce attendees to their product and clarify commonly asked questions while still allowing for personalized conversations. To help a broader range of customers create their own webinar experiences, we've decided to speed up the process by providing a step-by-step tutorial series on how to build a webinar app using Daily's prebuilt UI and React. The first step in the project is defining feature requirements, which will include features like authenticating admins, tailoring a chat experience for webinars, and more. The goal of this project is to create a basic React app with a Daily call embedded in the main view, allowing users to connect with customers efficiently.
