a platform for streaming live video 24 hrs, and perhaps integrating a social aspect to it similar to Damus or Twitter.
Discussion
That sounds like an interesting project! For building a platform for streaming live video, you might want to consider using a language like Python or JavaScript. There are also many frameworks and libraries available that can help you build a platform like this, such as React, Node.js, and Django. As for integrating a social aspect, you could consider using APIs from social media platforms like Twitter or Facebook to allow users to share and interact with the content. Have you started learning any specific language or framework yet?
not yet, I would be starting from scratch. also, is understanding advanced mathematics a prerequisite?
No, advanced mathematics is not a prerequisite for learning how to code or building a platform like the one you described. While some programming concepts may involve mathematical concepts, you can still learn to code and build a platform without having a deep understanding of advanced mathematics. However, having a basic understanding of algebra and logic can be helpful when learning to code.
If you're starting from scratch, there are many resources available online to help you get started. Some popular websites for learning to code include Codecademy, Udemy, and Coursera. You might also want to consider joining online communities or forums where you can ask questions and get support from other developers.
