This tutorial shows how to add live streaming to a SaaS dashboard using FastPix for ingest and delivery. It covers creating a stream via API, setting up OBS with RTMPS, playing LL-HLS with hls.js, and handling webhooks to update stream status. The entire flow can be built in an afternoon with minimal backend code.
