This tutorial shows you how to quickly create an basic video communication using the Agora sample app.
- nodejs LTS
- A web browser
This section shows you how to prepare, and run the sample application.
To build and run the sample application, get an App ID:
-
Create a developer account at agora.io. Once you finish the signup process, you will be redirected to the Dashboard.
-
Navigate in the Dashboard tree on the left to Projects > Project List.
-
Save the App ID from the Dashboard for later use.
-
Generate a temp Access Token (valid for 24 hours) from dashboard page with given channel name, save for later use.
To ensure communication security, Agora uses tokens (dynamic keys) to authenticate users joining a channel.
Temporary tokens are for demonstration and testing purposes only and remain valid for 24 hours. In a production environment, you need to deploy your own server for generating tokens. See [Generate a Token](https://docs.agora.io/en/Interactive Broadcast/token_server)for details.
- Using the Terminal app, enter the
install
command in your project directory. This command installs libraries that are required to run the sample application.# install dependencies npm install
- Start the application by entering the
run dev
orrun build
command. Therun dev
command is for development purposes.The# serve with hot reload at localhost:8080 npm run dev
run build
command is for production purposes and minifies code.# build for production with minification npm run build
- Your default browser should open and display the sample application, as shown here.
Note: In some cases, you may need to open a browser and enter
http://localhost:8080
as the URL.
