#2I work at a school with a campus in Texas and due to COVID-19, we created an interactive live streaming platform to connect kids with the world's best teachers in a fun and safe way. All of our live streams are free and open to the public.
We were previously using a combination of Streamyard + Twitch, but had to make our own for various reasons. I'll see if our CTO will give a debrief of the tech stack on this thread.
If you're a scientist, engineer, or artist interested in streaming on the platform let me know! michael@dexterlearning.com

Hi, can you please do so? I am an engineer interested in starting my own streaming platform.

Yes - very interested in what you're using for the tech stack. Why didn't Streamyard + Twitch work? What are your operating costs (if I can ask)? For the website, is this a custom site or based on something like Wordpress? Would love to know details!

#9I saw the domain and thought maybe Showtime had greenlit a Broadway adaption of their hit show. Alas.
This looks even better though. Nice one!

We haven't had time to optimize for mobile. Most of the users are kids watching on a computer at home, but it's on the list!
