Live streams are pay-as-you-go. You’ll need to add your credit card details to your Daily account to enable it.

What We’ll Build

In this series, we’ll build a live streaming app that broadcasts directly to YouTube using the Daily Video Conferencing Plugin.

Our app will include essential features:

  • User Sign-Up & Login: A simple interface for account creation and access.
  • Stream Creation & Configuration: Users can create live streams, set details, and share a link for others to join.
  • Backstage Area: A backstage view for hosts and participants to join and prepare for live streaming.

Whether for Q&As, webinars, or virtual meetups, this app will allow users to bring audiences together on YouTube with a few clicks.

While the series walks you through each step, you can also explore a finished version in the sample editor. Please note that, for security, sign-ups are disabled and API keys have been removed.

Series Overview

By the end, you’ll have a fully functional live-streaming app with all the essentials for sharing live events on YouTube.
