Chat application with online meeting functionality using MERN stack

MCA

In recent years, online communication and collaboration platforms have gained significant importance due to the rapid growth of remote work and virtual interactions. This paper presents a MERN (MongoDB, Express.js, React.js, Node.js) stack-based chat application with integrated online meeting functionality to address the evolving needs of remote teams and individuals. The application enables users to engage in real-time chat conversations and conduct seamless online meetings through video conferencing. The MERN stack architecture is utilized to develop a robust and scalable solution. MongoDB serves as the database to store user information, chat messages, and meeting details. Express.js provides the backend framework, allowing for efficient handling of HTTP requests and real-time communication using WebSocket protocol. React.js is employed on the frontend to deliver a responsive and intuitive user interface, facilitating smooth navigation and interaction. Node.js powers the server-side operations and ensures the efficient flow of data between the server and client. The chat application features various functionalities, including one-on-one and group chat capabilities, file sharing, and real-time message updates. Additionally, it integrates online meeting functionality through a video conferencing API, allowing users to schedule and host virtual meetings within the application.
