# Douscord
Created for a study project in <u>Advanced web development</u>, we had to replicate [Discord](https://discordapp.com/) the famous text/vocal/video streaming platform. We had to use *WebSockets*, the *Java Persistence API* and the option we chose is to support *audio streaming* support. We worked on this project for 3-5 weeks.
> This work is under the MIT Licence.
**LEGAL ISSUES**
Discord is an open-source project, but we decided to "*copy*" its behavior without looking at its source. We dumped assets from the original website, any legal issue is protected by non-profit university work.
