Real-Time Video Podcasting Production Studio as a web app
- Web Applications
Implementation of an intuitive, real-time broadcasting frontend for seamless podcast production.
Project Details
| Duration | 6 months |
| Tools |
The challenge was managing and synchronizing complex application states and data streams in real time, while maintaining swift and seamless user interactions and collaboration. The solution was a robust tech stack with modern tooling and a clear separation of concerns, allowing for individual component tweaking and optimization. This approach enabled the creation of an accessible , coherent user interface , providing an intuitive experience for all users.
Objective & Solution
The objective was to build a Progressive Web Application (PWA) that integrates the startup's brand and user experience into a complete real-time video podcasting studio. The browser-based frontend is responsive across devices, featuring a specialized studio interface for desktop users. The project leveraged advanced web technologies to deliver a fluid, high-quality production environment for creators, guests, and viewers.
Project Outcomes
Collaborative Live Editing & Viewer Engagements
Developed an environment for efficient management of video signals, screenshares, stage layouts, branding, and audience interaction.
High-Quality Audio and Video Recording
Implemented a system where local audio recordings are merged server-side with video to maintain high production quality, even in low-bandwidth scenarios.
Custom Component Library
Created a bespoke, accessible component library to ensure a modular and consistent user interface across the application.
The Dinghy team assembles those unicorns that many tech teams wish for: awesome designers and equally great frontend developers, all in one team.
Working with Nils and his team is a very unique and motivating experience. They listen very carefully to the challenge being described and then – instead of just doing what we planned – continue to collect evidence and come up with a whole new idea on top of what we asked for. Truly creative work!
Project Deliverables
