The main goal of our project is to provide an online platform especially for group coding interviews. This platform provides a comprehensive environment for seamless communication between interviewers and candidates, with the goal of addressing the challenges faced during remote technical assessments. The creation of a feature-rich web platform is the goal of our project. This includes an adaptable rich text editor that enables coding in real time, a mechanism for instantaneous code evaluation via execution and compilation, integrated video conferencing for efficient communication, and the ability to set up interview rooms to hold several interviews at once. We\'re designing a user intuitive interface using technology and strong programming frameworks. The main objectives of the platform are to ensure real time code execution and a seamless interview process. This is achieved by incorporating code compilation engines implementing editing tools and utilizing WebRTC for video conferencing. By creating a user-friendly and productive environment that benefits both interviewers and candidates, our platform seeks to expedite the remote technical interview process. This means reducing logistical obstacles, making thorough coding evaluations possible, and creating a positive interview environment. The platform serves a wide range of customers, such as candidates looking for an environment that allows them to demonstrate their coding talents, interviewers looking for effective assessment tools, and tech businesses conducting remote interviews.
I. INTRODUCTION
The goal of the creative project known as the Online Collaborative Coding Interview Platform is to revolutionize the field of remote technical evaluations. A committed team created this platform to ease interviewers' and candidates' collaboration during coding interviews. A powerful rich text editor with real-time code execution and compilation capabilities, integrated video conferencing for efficient communication, and the ability to create interview rooms for simultaneous interviews are some of its primary features. Utilizing cutting-edge technologies and a user-centric methodology, the platform strives to optimize the remote interview process by offering a safe, effective, and intuitive environment. This project's ultimate goal is to provide the best possible option for conducting and participating in remote coding interviews for IT businesses, interviewers, and candidates.
II. LITERATURE SURVEY
Additionally, the study included comparisons among these channels and investigated the implications of introducing an additional routing node. The overarching aim was to underscore the potential synergies between these technologies, emphasizing how such integration could fortify cybersecurity defenses and proactively safeguard users.

Post Graduate Thesis: Technological advancements have ushered in a new era for video communication in classrooms, previously confined to research domains. With improved compression and affordable devices, standard internet connections now deliver superior-quality transmissions. This evolution has seen web conferencing surge in popularity, supplanting travel plans due to budgetary constraints within businesses and institutions (Sami, 2008; Roberts, 2009). The shift signifies a significant change in how communication technology, once limited to specialized settings, has become accessible and indispensable for widespread use in various professional and educational settings, marking a pivotal transformation in communication norms.

Bertin’s 2015 paper, ”Unified Communications as a Service and WebRTC: An Identity- Centric Perspective,” published in Computer Communications, explores integrating enterprise communication into Unified Communications (UC), encompassing voice, video, voicemail, and more under Unified Communications as a Service (UCaaS). Web Real-Time Communications (WebRTC) enable real-time voice and video, yet the shift to Software-as- a-Service (SaaS) raises security concerns in enterprise Identity Management (IDM). While WebRTC enhances browser capabilities, its role in managing user identity remains unaddressed, complicating IDM within cloud services. The paper outlines IDM requirements in UCaaS, discussing models for cloud-based corporate services and suggesting minor WebRTC adjustments to meet evolving business IDM needs.
III. PURPOSE
Primary purpose of the project is to create an online plat- form specifically tailored for collaborative coding interviews. It aims to address the challenges faced in remote technical assessments by providing a comprehensive environment that fosters seamless interaction between interviewers and candidates. This purpose-driven initiative seeks to revolutionize the remote interview process by offering a feature-rich platform equipped with real-time code execution, integrated video con- ferencing, and collaborative editing tools.
IV. PROPOSED SYSTEM
The proposed system entails the development of an all- inclusive, dedicated online platform specifically engineered to revolutionize the landscape of remote technical assessments.
This innovative platform is meticulously designed to address the shortcomings of the current disparate systems by amalgamating essential features into a cohesive, integrated environment.
The development of this platform relies on cutting-edge technologies and robust programming frameworks. Utilizing WebRTC for video conferencing integration, server-side exe- cution environments, and secure authentication protocols, the system ensures a secure and seamless user experience. The team follows an agile development methodology, incorporating iterative improvements based on user feedback to refine and enhance the platform continuously.

VI. WEBSOCKETS
In the realm of web-based real-time communication (RTC), WebSockets have emerged as a pivotal technology. Unlike traditional HTTP requests, which are stateless and lack real- time capabilities, WebSockets facilitate persistent, bidirec- tional communication channels between clients and servers. This feature makes them an ideal choice for applications requiring instant data exchange, such as video conferencing systems.

VII. WEBRTC MESH ARCHITECTURE
WebRTC (Web Real-Time Communication) has revolu- tionized real-time communication on the web by providing a standardized framework for enabling peer-to-peer audio, video, and data transmission directly between web browsers. One of the key architectural approaches within WebRTC is the mesh topology, which offers simplicity and scalability
for video conferencing applications. This section explores the integration of WebRTC with mesh topology architecture in the context of our coding interview platform.
A. Understanding Mesh Topology Architecture
In a mesh topology, each participant in a video conference is connected directly to every other participant, forming a network of interconnected nodes. Unlike centralized or server- based architectures, mesh topology distributes the communi- cation load across all participants, enabling decentralized peer- to-peer communication without relying on a central server for data routing. This decentralized nature of mesh topology enhances scalability and fault tolerance, as participants can dynamically join or leave the conference without disrupting the overall communication flow.
B. Advantages of Mesh Topology with WebRTC
Through rigorous testing and evaluation, the system demon- strated its ability to facilitate concurrent editing of code in real- time, ensuring consistent collaboration among users regardless of geographical location. The incorporation of WebRTC tech- nology enabled smooth video conferencing sessions within the code editing environment, enhancing the collaborative experience.
Furthermore, the system’s scalability and performance were evaluated under various load conditions, demonstrating sta- bility and responsiveness even with a significant number of concurrent users.
Overall, the Real-Time Collaborative Code Editor project represents a significant advancement in enabling collaborative software development practices, offering a versatile and user- friendly platform for remote teamwork and code collaboration.
