Build a Discord Clone with Next.js and TailwindCSS: Audio and Video Calling — Part Five

The final installment of the series on building a Discord clone using Next.js and TailwindCSS focuses on integrating audio and video calling features, similar to those in Discord, using Stream's Video & Audio SDK. This involves creating and joining audio channels that can seamlessly transform into video calls, thereby enhancing user interaction beyond the typical text chat. The project integrates the React SDK to manage audio and video functionalities, allowing users to join calls with audio only and enabling video as needed. The process includes setting up a separate category for audio channels, managing call creation and participation, and using pre-built UI components from Stream's SDK to provide capabilities like screen sharing and recording. The series demonstrates how to incorporate these features into a Discord clone, highlighting the ease of customization and integration of pre-built components, with the entire project code available on GitHub.
