Adding AR Filters in a 100ms Video Call - Part 1

ngrok

In case you're wondering what that auth token is, we can imagine them to be the meeting id that tells 100ms which room to put you in. Getting such a token is fairly straightforward(doesn't require anything technical or code) and is given in more detail here. Once you get the token, verify that everything is working fine. You can try joining from multiple tabs or sharing the link with your friends(after exposing with ngrok ofc). You can also join the same room from the link available on the dashboard(where the token was copied from).

100ms Live

We'll use React and 100ms' React SDK for the video call part of our application. 100ms, in short, is building developer-focused live SDKs which abstracts away the low-level complexities. Support for video plugins was released recently which makes it easier to experiment with AR filters after setting up a basic app. And so I set forth on the journey. I'll mostly be talking about the implementation details related to the filters themselves in this blog than setting up the video call app from scratch. You can checkout the quickstart guide though for a quick overview of the SDK and how it works, or you can just fork it(it's also the first step 😀) and follow along with my exploration.
