Getting started
To add video and audio to a React app, follow the React quickstart →.
It starts PulseBeam with Docker or Podman, then covers issuing participant tokens, joining a room, publishing capture, and receiving remote media in any React app. Success means seeing and hearing another participant, not just a local camera preview.
Other starting points
| Task | Guide |
|---|---|
| Publish using the HTTP/SDP WHIP protocol | WHIP publishing |
| Run and configure a server for your application | Deployment |
| Build or contribute to PulseBeam | Build and development |
WHIP publishing and the React integration are different tasks. The React quickstart does not require writing protocol messages or starting with WHIP.
