Description

I wanna add a password feature to invites. Currently anyone with your invite code can control your computer.

when you create an invite it should ask if you wanna password protect it

if you choose yes, you have to enter a password.

we then use the password to AES encrypt the SDP before it gets uploaded to the lobby

If you don't specify a password you should a clear warning like 'Anyone with this room name will be able to join and see your screen'

Contributor guide

Research direction
Explore how the current invite and SDP upload process works. Then implement AES encryption for SDP using a user provided password, and add a warning for non password protected invites.
