FirebaseRTC VS janus-gateway

And now there's a game, fully written in typescript and rendered in a , even fluently on all major browsers, and packaged inside a PWA. My future plans for it include more themes, more players, and remote multiplayer support, as an excuse to learn some WebRTC.

WebRTC is used by phenixrts as the delivery from server to client. The promise of WebRTC was P2P direct connections for video/data transport, and server/client for coordination and fallback.

> The scalability of Phenix’s platform does not come from the protocol itself, but from the systems built and deployed to accept WebRTC connections and deliver content through them. Our platform is built to scale out horizontally. In order to serve millions of concurrent users subscribing to the same stream in a short period of time, resources need to be provisioned timely or be available upfront.

> With WebRTC, you can add real-time communication capabilities to your application that works on top of an open standard. It supports video, voice, and generic data to be sent between peers...

You should take a look at WebRTC. I can't recommend a resource specific to Flask, but this article might be helpful.

With the strike in session, I had a lot of time on my hands to learn what I needed to learn, and things went on smoothly till I hit a brick wall. I couldn’t find a Web RTC implementation in Rust. Web RTC is a framework that allows browsers and web-based applications to communicate in real-time. It is important to know that while Rust has made a lot of waves in recent times, it is still relatively new compared to other languages and development technology. There were still things that had not fully been abstracted to the level where regular developers could easily access the functionalities without having a deep understanding of how they worked. Web RTC was one of them. Now that I think of it, I found one, but it was basically just C embedded in Rust. While that sort of worked, It wasn’t what I wanted. I searched around a bit more, then I found someone, Rainliu working on a Web RTC implementation in Rust. It was in its early stages though, in fact, all that had been done was a collated list of frameworks that would allow Web RTC to work in Rust. I decided to help out, or at least try to help. There I was, a few weeks into learning Rust, and I wanted to help build a library.

“The WebRTC project is open-source and supported by Apple, Google, Microsoft and Mozilla, amongst others.” Source

If you want to deal with NAT traversal I recommend doing this with WebRTC ... The pion project is perfect for this.

You’re looking for webRTC, FTP is just File Transfer Protocol. You are going to have to setup a TURN server for your webRTC app if this is going further then your LAN and a learning project. You could also look at websockets(central server), VoIP. https://github.com/flutter-webrtc/flutter-webrtc https://webrtc.org/

However, with WebRTC these above comes, with worked in into the program. Here, this innovation doesn't need any modules or outsider programming. The WebRTC handles everything consequently. Besides, being an open-source all its source codes are accessible for nothing at https://webrtc.org/

Web Real-time Connection (RTC) is a standardized API for peer to peer communication. It is available on all major browsers and supports video and voice. Many video calling applications use Web RTC Under the hood.

I've been using Janus gateway for similar. Pretty easy to setup.

A number of open-source projects also exist, which give developers a great head start if they're looking to build their own infrastructure - the most popular of these include Jitsi, Mediasoup, Janus, and Pion. These projects provide a layer of abstraction and expose a number of helper functions to perform various tasks, such as creating transports, etc. They have helpful guides on how to get started, but you would still face the aforementioned issues regarding scaling, resources, etc.

This all changes when you are actually a domain expert: You can treat the various components as a "white box" because you see the forest for the trees and can make cross-cutting assumptions which will inherently make the code faster. I've noticed a lot of projects written by domain experts are often these giant clusterfucks of C that violate pretty much every guideline there are so many Medium blogs about, and yet they're very stable and widely used. See: https://github.com/meetecho/janus-gateway for example.

Yes, there are many self-hosted options out there. https://github.com/meetecho/janus-gateway works well for multi-party video with up to about 15 users in a room assuming everyone has a reasonably reliable connection.

- Janus (C / C++)

You can also take a look at https://github.com/meetecho/janus-gateway which can help you implement the video call part (as well as more traditional rtc scenario)
