Hi @Rohit-554! 👋

I've implemented the multi-peer mesh group call feature for Hacktoberfest 2025! 🎃

✅ Implementation Complete

I've created a Pull Request with full multi-peer support: [Link to your PR]

What's Included

Core Features Implemented:

• ✅ MultiPeerManager.js: Handles multiple RTCPeerConnection instances in mesh topology
• ✅ AudioStreamManager.js: Manages dynamic audio elements with per-peer volume/mute controls
• ✅ PeerList Component: Displays all connected peers with real-time status
• ✅ PeerControls Component: Individual volume sliders, mute buttons, and disconnect options
• ✅ ConnectionStatus Component: Visual indicators (🟢 Connected, 🟡 Connecting, 🔴 Failed)
• ✅ Enhanced App.jsx: Supports comma-separated peer IDs for group calls
• ✅ Complete Styling: Modern, responsive dark theme with mobile support
• ✅ Updated Documentation: Comprehensive README with usage, performance guidelines, and troubleshooting

Technical Highlights:

• Mesh Topology: Each peer maintains (n-1) direct connections
• Recommended: 3-6 participants for optimal performance
• Zero Backend: Pure P2P using existing PeerJS setup
• E2E Encrypted: Maintains DTLS-SRTP encryption
• Backward Compatible: Works with existing 1-to-1 calls
• Mobile-Friendly: Handles Safari autoplay restrictions

Testing Completed:

• ✅ Multi-tab testing (3, 4, 6 simultaneous peers)
• ✅ Peer join/leave scenarios
• ✅ Individual volume/mute controls
• ✅ Connection state transitions
• ✅ Mobile responsiveness

Usage Example

// Users can now enter multiple peer IDs:
peer-id-1, peer-id-2, peer-id-3

// Each peer gets individual controls:
// - Volume slider (0-100%)
// - Mute/unmute button
// - Disconnect option
// - Real-time connection status
