Mobile PWA or Hybrid integration: please show a noob where to start

[mlininkl (michael)]

Hello,

I have built a web/mobile game as a PWA on top of ionic5/angular. It runs as a companion to participants on a Zoom meeting. (see: https://fishbowl-the-game.web.app)

But I need to offer better Zoom integration to simplify the game setup. Right now, players need some combination of 2 the following: Zoom client, desktop browser tab, or mobile devices.

I’d like to either:

1. (desktop) run the PWA app in the “chat window” of an established Zoom meeting in the Zoom client, or
2. (mobile browser) add video recording to the PWA/mobile browser, or
3. (mobile app) add video recording on Ionic+Capacitor/Cordova deployed as a hybrid app to IOS or Android.

Is #2 even supported? Is there a Tutorial that will point me in the right direction?

For starters, I’m reading this thread: Angular Integration with JS Web SDK.

It seems like I can use the Web SDK together with ionic+angular to join a meeting directly from the webpage of my app. I just need to make room for the meeting window on the DESKTOP PWA page.

But I see some limitations, including:

• If more than 10 participants join then the quality starts deteriorating. Is there limit on how participants can join the meeting if the integration is done through SDK.
• Unfortunately the Web Client or SDK does not support Gallery View. We will work on adding this in the future.

Also, from Do Zoom Web SDK run on mobile browsers

• For the best experience right now on mobile, you should use the Zoom Mobile app for browsers.

Are any of these issues solved?

I also see ionic integration (ionic4) with IonicNative https://ionicframework.com/docs/native/zoom and https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/sdk/hybrid-frameworks/ionic/mastering-zoom-sdk

It seems there is Cordova support for adding a Zoom meeting directly into to my ionic+angular app on platform=IOS or Android, but not from platform=web. There may even be support for ionic4, but not yet ionic5

Run Zoom on Ionic 4

Hi zeusstl, Thanks for your reply. Just would like to give you a heads-up on the issue. We are working on adding the simulator to our Ionic SDK and working on adding the support with Capacitor. We are expected to have the simulator support in the next release. We have tested that our Ionic SDK actually works with Ionic 4(Ionic framework 4.6, Ionic CLI 5.2.0) on real device. Below is the ionic info that we got the SDK working: Ionic: Ionic CLI : 5.2.0 (/usr/local/lib/…

Not yet.

Can you clarify what you mean by PWA?

Thanks,
