Conference Room - Video Meeting Script

The modern video conference script — beautiful, self-hosted, zero setup friction.

Conference Room is a self-hosted web application that lets anyone create an ad-hoc video conference room for up to 16 participants, invite others via a shareable link, and collaborate through video, audio, text chat with file attachments, and screen sharing.

Built on LiveKit — the same open-source WebRTC infrastructure powering companies like Reddit and Spatial. No other CodeCanyon script uses LiveKit, giving you a production-grade, battle-tested media layer maintained by a funded team with excellent documentation.

Why Conference Room?

• One-command install. Run docker compose up -d and you're live. No database, no PHP, no migrations, no external API keys.
• Dark-first premium design. Ships production-ready out of the box — no redesign needed. Light theme included and toggleable.
• Fully rebrandable in 5 minutes. Edit a single config/branding.json file to change product name, logo, colors, and footer text. No React code changes required.
• Ephemeral & privacy-first. Zero data persistence. No user accounts, no tracking, no stored meetings. When the last participant leaves, the room is gone. Perfect for telemedicine, legal consultations, and privacy-sensitive use cases.
• Mobile responsive. Works on iOS Safari 15+ and Android Chrome 100+. Adaptive grid layout from 320px to 2560px viewports.

Perfect for

• Telemedicine and telehealth portals
• Online tutoring and education platforms
• Legal and financial consultation apps
• Small-team internal communication tools
• Startup MVPs with embedded video calls
• Any vertical product that needs self-hosted video meetings without per-minute API fees

How it works

1. A user enters a room name on the landing page and clicks "Start Conference"
2. On the pre-join screen, they set their display name, preview their camera, and select devices
3. They join the room and share the invite link — anyone with the link can join instantly
4. The first participant becomes the host with moderation controls
5. When everyone leaves, the room is automatically destroyed

Host moderation controls

• Remove participants from the meeting
• Force-mute a participant's microphone
• Force-disable a participant's camera
• Lock the room to prevent new joiners
• End the meeting for all participants
• Automatic host transfer when the host disconnects

Architecture

Three-service Docker Compose stack:

• React SPA frontend — Vite + TypeScript + LiveKit Components React
• Node.js backend — Express + Socket.io + LiveKit Server SDK
• LiveKit Server — Apache 2.0 licensed SFU with built-in TURN

No database. No external dependencies. No recurring API costs. Everything runs on your VPS.

Theming

All colors are defined as CSS custom properties. Two built-in themes (dark default + light) toggleable by users. Full rebranding via a single JSON config file with documented fields for: product name, logo path, primary color, accent color, background color, footer text, and footer link URL.

Security

• HTTPS required in production
• DTLS-SRTP encrypted media (built into LiveKit)
• Server-side participant cap enforcement
• XSS protection on all user input
• MIME-type whitelist for file uploads (content-sniffing, not header trust)
• Rate-limited room creation (10 rooms/min per IP)
• Time-limited LiveKit access tokens (1-hour TTL)

What's NOT included (by design)

We deliberately chose focus over feature count. The following are intentionally excluded to keep the product clean, maintainable, and fast:

• Recording (planned for v1.1)
• Whiteboard
• AI/ChatGPT integration
• Admin dashboard
• SaaS billing
• User accounts or registration

Why 16 participants?

16 is a UI quality ceiling, not a technical limit. The grid layout stays beautiful and usable at 16 tiles. The underlying LiveKit architecture supports more — if you need higher limits, change a single constant in the configuration.
