Nice to hear from you! I work for Vonage and I am lucky enough to get paid to build fun projects, especially ones that make me look like a cool dad and give my son a somewhat decent birthday party during the pandemic! 😂
If you are new to DEV, one of the easiest ways to figure out if a piece of content is coming from a company is to look to see if it is under a company organization. Right above the title at the top of the page, and in the right-hand navigation menu there is identifier information for what organization this content is coming from.
I appreciate the kind words. If you end up using the Vonage Video API for the product you are building please let us know how it goes. We have dedicated a channel for the Video API in our community Slack.
Thanks, and I appreciate the quick reply! Let me be the first complete stranger to wish your son a very happy birthday. :)
Right now I am in the realm of intrigued! Again, I hope that you can send some of my points/questions/suggestions regarding comparisons up the ladder. My DMs are open, as they say.
I just don't see much value in pretending like there isn't healthy competition. There's extraordinary value for Vonage, Twilio and the developers in that competition, especially in the long term. Any obfuscation or unintended failure to make it mindlessly easy to make an apples to apples comparison will likely favour the known quantity incumbent, after all.

The second part of this series was published just now, and happy to say that it is all vanilla JS.

Well, thank you for the happy birthday message! He had a great time, which given the world we are living in, I was happy to make that happen!
