Douscord

​ Created for a study project in Advanced web development, we had to replicate Discord 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.
