Camus
Camus is a group video chat app that uses WebRTC for direct peer-to-peer communication. Users can create and join rooms, stream audio and video with a microphone and webcam, share their screen, and send text messages. You can try a demo at https://camus.chat, or run your own server using Snap, pip, Docker, or Heroku.
Features

Stream audio & video
Share your desktop
Send text messages
Control video feeds – set your camera resolution, toggle fullscreen or picture-in-picture, disable incoming video
Configure custom STUN and TURN servers
Responsive user interface that works on large or small screens
Installation
Snap
Make sure you have snapd installed. Install Camus:
$ sudo snap install camus
Once installed, Camus runs automatically as a Snap service. See the Snap service management documentation for details on starting and stopping services.
Go to localhost:5000 in your browser. For local testing, you can visit the same room in multiple tabs and each tab will act as a separate client.
Pip
Camus requires Python 3.7 or higher since it makes use of Quart and async syntax. As usual, it’s best to use a virtual environment.
Install Camus:
$ pip install camus-chat
Run Camus:
$ camus
Go to localhost:5000 in your browser. For local testing, you can visit the same room in multiple tabs and each tab will act as a separate client.
Docker
You can find a pre-built Docker image on Docker Hub. Use the following command to pull the image and run a container:
$ docker run -d -p 5000:5000 mrgnr/camus
Go to localhost:5000 in your browser. For local testing, you can visit the same room in multiple tabs and each tab will act as a separate client.
