P2pcf: P2P WebRTC via Cloudflare Workers
I think that’s an amazing idea. I tried with https://github.com/pion/offline-browser-communication but it requires standards improvements
If you are interested I would love to work together! Join the Pion slack and would love to brainstorm

If the W3C accepted this as a valid use case it could be available quickly.

OBS Merges WebRTC Support
Yes WebRTC does require a discovery mechanism. That is where WHIP/Signaling comes into play.
I have a chapter on signaling here https://webrtcforthecurious.com/docs/02-signaling/
I have an example of WebRTC without signaling https://github.com/pion/offline-browser-communication. Each side has to agree on things ahead of time. Useful for security cameras/IoT/LAN stuff though!

Is it possible to build a file sharing (only for local networks) web app using WebRTC?
I made offline-browser-communication to show how it could be done. It connects two peers without a signaling server and is portable between networks.
What are some alternatives?
simplewall - Simple tool to configure Windows Filtering Platform (WFP) which can configure network activity on your computer.
snapdrop - A Progressive Web App for local file sharing
Node.js-LAN-File-Sharing - A small Node.js app designed for sharing files while on the same network. Especially useful when you are trying to get a file from a friend and their device has a single Type-C port used for charging.
