I was wondering what would be the requirement for self-hosting Jitsi - in terms of server resources - bandwidth, CPU etc? Is the Video/VOIP transmitted client to client or does it get routed via the server? Thanks.

I found that it had some issues with people connecting via the web clients. Is there a way to mitigate that or is that just expected with the software?

Do you mean some parties are unable to connect? There are some open issues, limitations, and Jitsi Meet does not officially support all browsers.

Here is the supported list:

For example, Brave Browser is still not fully supported:

FWIW, it works great on my Chromebook, meeted up with myself on my Android. Even used x86 Bromite browser on Chromebook, and even blur background worked after a slight delay. Impressive.

Thank you!

I’m curious why it works on iPad but not iPhone.

(Video doesn’t work on either, but that’s documented)

Folks using Brave (or who otherwise have video autoplay turned off) will need to allow autoplay for it to work correctly.

What kind of work would it take to build video conferencing using jitsi meet into a mobile app?

It took us a while to get video conferencing working on iOS and Android but it is doable and can be cross-platform.
