infecting
Not sure what category to dump this in so sorry if this is in the wrong section. Recently I have been doing some basic research on voice chat servers because I find them interesting. However, I haven’t found a lot of material on underlying technology of voice chat servers (non webrtc), especially with elixir (most of the stuff I have seen is involving SIP phone stuff). I am looking to make some sort of voice chat using an elixir backend, but im not sure exactly what libraries could be used for such a task. I am going to give the information I have been able to find in the last hour or so and if I could get any feedback/direction that would be greatly appreciated.
- MongooseIM (this looks the most intriguing)
- Cowboy (this may be naive but it looks like they have some sort of socket data)
- Jingle (this looks like SIP though so not 100% sure. I may also be undereducated about SIP though)

But Cowboy is a web server. Think of it as Caddy, Nginx, Apache, etc. Elixir runs over Cowboy
