RippleNote

Production-ready WebRTC infrastructure for privacy-focused note taking and live collaboration. RippleNote pairs a FastAPI backend with a modular Mediasoup SFU service, optional recording, and S3 storage for long-lived assets.

System Overview

• 1:1 WebRTC video/audio sessions orchestrated through Mediasoup
• FastAPI backend that manages calls, signaling, recording, and storage metadata
• Local FFmpeg-based recording with optional S3 upload
• Modular Node.js mediasoup server tailored for containerized deployments

Getting Started

1. Backend – install Python dependencies and run uvicorn as described in backend/README.md.
2. Mediasoup Server – install Node dependencies (npm install) then run npm start inside mediasoup-server/.
3. Configure Environment – create a .env file with backend + mediasoup host/port info, and optional AWS/S3 + recording configuration.
4. Try the APIs – open http://localhost:8000/docs for interactive FastAPI docs and use the Mediasoup endpoints to bootstrap transports.
