🧩 Installation Guide

1. Backend: Clone API → cp .env.example .env → set DB/REDIS/JWT → composer install or npm i → php artisan migrate --seed / npm run prisma:migrate.
2. TURN/SFU: Deploy coturn (TLS) and your SFU (mediasoup/Janus/LiveKit). Add credentials & ICE servers to API config.
3. Web client: npm i → set VITE_API_BASE_URL / NEXT_PUBLIC_... → npm run build.
4. Flutter apps: Open in Android Studio/Xcode → flutter pub get → set BASE_URL and TURN keys → add google-services.json / GoogleService-Info.plist.
5. Branding: Replace app name, icons, splash, colors, and login background.
6. Security: Enable HTTPS, WSS, HSTS; set CORS; rotate JWT keys; enforce lobby + host controls.
7. Release: Build AAB/IPA; deploy web to CDN; run SFU behind load balancer; monitor via Prometheus/Grafana.

• Customization tips (Expertise): Enable simulcast for large rooms; cap camera fps on mobile; add transcription via cloud STT; integrate LMS (Moodle) or calendar (Google/Microsoft).
• Performance: Scale SFU horizontally; pin active speakers; switch to audio-only for poor networks; use SVC where supported.
• Security & privacy: Enforce lobby, meeting passwords, and host moderation; document data retention for chat/recordings; provide DPA for enterprise clients.
• ASO/SEO: Keywords—“video conference,” “webinar,” “online classes,” “virtual meetings”; localize store text & screenshots.
