Could you build this?
Partial Building a self-hosted chat app with local Ollama is straightforward, but delivering a full Zoom alternative requires multi-party real-time media infrastructure that goes beyond simple vibe-coding.
What it would actually take: A viable self-hosted Slack/Zoom alternative requires containerized deployment (Docker/Compose) bundling a real-time messaging server, an authentication service, and a Selective Forwarding Unit (SFU) such as LiveKit, mediasoup, or Pion for low-latency WebRTC video/audio conferencing. Engineers must handle STUN/TURN server configuration, adaptive bitrate streaming, simulcast, and media renegotiation to ensure stable calls across diverse network topologies.
