[maxiggle]

What is your idea?

1. Understanding Getstream:

   • GetStream is software-as-a-service platform that offers consumer apps interactivity such as voice and video call apis.
   • In our usecase, we will be implementing its video call api for seamless video call experience.

2. Directus integration:

   • We will be using the directus js port flutter sdk to handle authentication
   • User management: With directus, we will handle users profile, and login credentials.
   • Meeting information: Collection will handle storing meeting schedules, call records.

3. Setting up GetStream:

   • Create GetStream account to access its api.
   • Install internet permissions
   • install permissions package to allow access to using mic, recorders and camera

4. Flutter setup:

   • Install necessary dependencies ( getStream, Directus).
   • Build simple button to enable Google social auth
   • Manage state with Bloc/Cubit
   • Integrate Getstream sdk with prebuilt UI

5. Thorough test:

   • Conduct test to ensure application works as expected on bot ios and Android.
   • Ensure readable code

What are the key takeaways from your post?

1. Understand how to use Getstream to build amazing interactions for your mobile app experience
2. HeadlessCMS: Understand the capability of headlessCMS and how to use Directus as one.
3. Explore frontend as a mobile app dev: Build standard production flutter app using the industry standard state manager (i/0)
