WebRTC is a thing. You don’t have to build all that from scratch. It’s very reasonable to piece together a lot of standard technologies to make this progress much quicker. I haven’t looked into this project, so I don’t know, but I know it was pretty trivial to setup a WebRTC app 10 years ago, which would appear to be a fully functioning video app.

Building the full stack of a functional real-time voice and video comms system as a lone dev is not a trivial undertaking.
Even if they put 40/wk or more into it, I’d still be impressed. Like I said, not impossible but these people are rare.
