Idea for the first one came when a client wanted to host some videos which were to receive very high traffic. Easiest solution was youtube but youtube adds friction. All other hosting platforms wanted for bandwidth or number of hours of streams. Cheapest solution I found was transcoding and hosting on cloudflare R2.
I then went down the rabbit hole of building youtube in the cheapest possible way.
The app is built with api endpoints in mind so a future mobile app can be built in future.
Other use cases : video embedding, personal video storage, corporate training materials, hosting courses.
