how do create custom control button

To create a custom control button in LiveKit, you can extend and customize the existing React components provided by LiveKit. For example, if you want to customize the
ControlBar
component, you can create your own version by using the components and hooks from the LiveKit library. This involves importing necessary components and hooks, and then building your custom component with the desired functionality and styling. Here's a basic example of how you might start: 1. Import Necessary Components: Use components like
TrackToggle
,
DisconnectButton
, and hooks like
useLocalParticipantPermissions
from the LiveKit library. 2. Build Custom Component: Create a new React component that uses these imports to define your custom control button's behavior and appearance.
Copy code
import React from 'react';
import { TrackToggle, DisconnectButton } from '@livekit/components-react';

function CustomControlButton() {
  return (
    <div>
      <TrackToggle source="microphone" />
      <DisconnectButton>Leave Room</DisconnectButton>
    </div>
  );
}

export default CustomControlButton;
