In our popular guide, "How to Build a Video Conferencing App in Under an Hour," we showed you how to get a fully functional video meeting running by simply embedding a URL in an <iframe>. It’s a fantastic way to get started, but to build a truly professional and seamless product, you need to go deeper.

An <iframe> is a box. It isolates the meeting client from your main application, creating a visible separation that can feel clunky and limit your branding potential.

This guide is the next step in your developer journey. We will show you how to break out of the box and create a deeply integrated, fully white-labeled video conferencing experience using Plug-N-Meet's powerful "headless" integration and design customization APIs.

When you search for "free video conferencing," you're looking for a simple, cost-effective way to connect with your team, clients, or community. The internet is full of "free" tiers from major SaaS providers, and they seem like the perfect solution.

But what is the true cost of "free"?

Too often, the price isn't on the invoice; it's hidden in the terms of service. You pay with your data, your brand identity, and your control. This article explores the hidden costs of "free" video conferencing and introduces a better, more empowering alternative.

As an educator using Moodle, your goal is to create engaging and effective learning experiences. You want to add live, interactive video classes to your courses, but the options can be frustrating. You're either stuck with complex tools that require technical help, or you're forced to send your students to an external platform like Zoom, breaking the seamless flow of your course.

What if you could add a powerful, interactive virtual classroom directly to your Moodle course as easily as adding a quiz or a forum?

With the official Plug-N-Meet plugin for Moodle, you can. You don't need to be a developer, and you don't need to write a single line of code. This article will show you how to create a fully integrated, no-code video conferencing service right inside your Moodle site.

We've all been there: an "interactive workshop" that's just a 90-minute video call with a slide deck. The host struggles to juggle different apps for polls, group activities, and notes, while the audience slowly disengages.

An online workshop shouldn't be a passive presentation. It should be a dynamic, collaborative experience. But to achieve that, you need more than just a video link; you need an integrated toolkit where every feature works together seamlessly.

With Plug-N-Meet, you have that toolkit. This guide will walk you through the anatomy of a perfect online workshop, showing how to use a single, unified platform to manage every stage of your event, from the initial icebreaker to the automated follow-up.

Have you ever dreamed of launching your own online service or "micro-SaaS," but felt blocked by the biggest hurdle: coding? You're not alone. The idea of building, managing, and scaling a software product is daunting.

But what if you could create a fully branded, monetized, and professional video conferencing service using a tool you already know and trust?

With the power of Joomla and the plugNmeet component, you can. This guide will walk you through the simple, step-by-step process of launching your own white-label video conferencing service, without writing a single line of code.

Have you ever dreamed of launching your own online service or "micro-SaaS," but felt blocked by the biggest hurdle: coding? You're not alone. The idea of building, managing, and scaling a software product is daunting.

But what if you could create a fully branded, monetized, and professional video conferencing service using a tool you probably already use every day?

With the power of WordPress and the plugNmeet plugin, you can. This guide will walk you through the simple, step-by-step process of launching your own white-label video conferencing service, without writing a single line of code.

When you search for open source webinar software, you're looking for more than just a way to talk to people online. You're looking for control. You want to own your brand, manage your audience, and create a unique, professional presentation without being locked into the expensive, rigid ecosystem of proprietary tools like Zoom Webinars or GoToWebinar.

Many open-source projects offer a basic meeting experience. But a webinar is not just a meeting. It has a different structure, different roles, and different goals. You need a platform that understands this distinction.

At plugNmeet, we believe the best webinar experience isn't a one-size-fits-all tool. It's a flexible, API-first platform that gives you the building blocks to create the exact webinar workflow you need. This article explains how.

If you manage a Learning Management System (LMS) like Moodle or a Content Management System (CMS) like WordPress, you've likely faced this frustrating scenario: you have a vibrant community, a rich content library, and a well-defined user base, but the moment you need to host a live class or a webinar, you have to send everyone away to a third-party, standalone application.

You generate a Zoom link, post it on your site, and hope your users can find it, log in correctly, and navigate back when it's over. This experience is clunky, disjointed, and it breaks the seamless learning environment you've worked so hard to build.

At plugNmeet, we believe this is a fundamentally flawed workflow. That's why we made a deliberate architectural choice: to be a plugin-first platform, not just another standalone app.

For educators and institutions using Moodle, the goal is to create a seamless, engaging, and secure learning environment. However, when it's time for a live virtual class, many are forced to send their students to an external, generic video conferencing link. This experience is often disjointed, and the tools provided are frequently limited to passive screen sharing.

What if your live classroom felt like a native part of Moodle? What if you could move beyond one-way screen sharing to a truly interactive and collaborative canvas, all while maintaining the highest levels of security and performance?

By integrating the plugNmeet activity module into Moodle, you can achieve exactly that. This post explores how to leverage plugNmeet's powerful, built-in collaborative tools—the interactive whiteboard and shared notepad—to build a superior e-learning platform.

Building a video conferencing application sounds like a monumental task. You have to wrestle with the complexities of WebRTC, set up signaling servers, manage STUN/TURN for NAT traversal, and handle the resource-intensive job of routing media streams. The backend infrastructure alone can take months to build and stabilize.

But what if you could skip all of that?

What if you could leverage a powerful, open-source platform that handles all the backend complexity, allowing you to build a fully functional, custom-branded video conferencing app in under an hour? With plugNmeet, you can.

This guide will show you the three core steps to building your own video app using plugNmeet's API-first architecture.
