What is the point of this? What do you need? be very explicit and specific, usually, this forum is for bug-related issues or areas that need clarity so please give more detail so that you can be assisted as much ,

But if you need to learn how the Janus sever works, I would assume that you have some understanding of WebRTC⁤ and the core concepts as well, you can watch some material on Janus server here janus webrtc - YouTube ,Also Janus - General purpose WebRTC server (meetecho.com) , play around with the examples Janus WebRTC Server (multistream): Demo Tests (meetecho.com)
