How to build a custom peer-to-peer member chat with ReactJS and PeerJS for a Webflow-Memberstack platform?

Hello MS-Friends ๐Ÿ™‚ Recently i Build a Job-Platform with Webflow, Airtable, Zapier and Memberstack and its just pure Fun ๐Ÿ˜ Now i want to add a Peer-To-Peer Memberchat. Since Memberchat https://memberchatdemo.webflow.io/ is a dissapoinment ๐Ÿ˜ข and all other paid Solutions are way to expensive right now, i want to do it by myself! But before i start i would love to get some Feedback from the Community about the possibility to connect all the different Solutions. I wanna use Javascript(ReactJS), PeerJS as Framework and MongoDB for Database. So basically a Memberchat 2.0 with more functions. Do you have any recommendations or best practises? Thank you so much for your time ๐Ÿ’Œ

If somebody from the Community wanna join this project feel free to send me a DMย

    I really, really want to make this possible ๐Ÿ˜…

    First thoughts - The stack you suggested may be overkill, I feel like you could probably use Airtable as your DB and make this work - it won't be live, it will need to be refreshed to fetch new chats, but I do think it would be possible. I know @Joel Whitaker has made something like this with Alphi and plans to make it even better in the near-ish future

    A key part of my Memberstack site is ability for members to chat with each other, triggering email notification and allowing me as admin to see the exchange of messages. What's the best, easiest and cheapest way to add this functionality?

    There is a live chat feature. I believe that you can create a make integration to notify you via email / slack regarding the messages exchanged. Maybe someone else from the team will have other ideas ๐Ÿค”
