Blog post from Stream
The tutorial guides users through the development of a TeleHealth iOS app that enables gym members and instructors to interact via online virtual fitness classes using Stream Chat for messaging and Dolby.io for audio and video. It provides a step-by-step process for setting up the project in Xcode, installing necessary dependencies using CocoaPods, and configuring the Stream Chat and Dolby.io dashboards. The app features a "Join" screen with buttons for participants to enter as either a gym member or instructor, leading to a class screen where they can chat and initiate video calls. The tutorial includes code snippets and instructions for setting up user interfaces, handling button actions, and starting video calls, with a focus on building a cohesive in-app communication experience. Additionally, it emphasizes the importance of configuring usage descriptions for microphone and camera in the app's Info.plist file to ensure functionality, and encourages users to explore further customization through the documentation of Stream Chat and Dolby.io.
