Help us prioritize features for our decentralized p2p chat app
this app is using peerjs to connect peers over a webrtc connection. check out thier docs for more info. with webrtc, things like file-transfer, should be very performant compared to cloud storage providers... especially over LAN. network speed doesnt seems to be an issue i have experienced.

Some things I learned, retrofitting a browser-based RTS for network multiplayer.
I'm using the client-side PeerJS https://peerjs.com/ library for networking. As the name may imply, a direct connection is established between two peers using WebRTC via "handshake" through an intermediary server they host - and, they provide source for the server as well. I have found it to be quite reliable, thus far.

Ask HN: Those making $0/month or less on side projects – Show and tell
You might be able to eliminate the VPS by making it P2P using something like PeerJS [1]. PeerJS provides a free shared connection broker server.

We just release our first version of TOONKS, a 3D Multiplayer Game where you can play a tiny tank against your friends directly on your browser without any installation.
We use peer.js module to create a WebRTC connection between clients

CRDTs and Distributed Consistency - Part 3: Building a distributed counter
Now that we have all the required boilerplate we can start building the actual game. For the communications between peers we are going to use PeerJS a peer-to-peer library built on top of WebRTC.

Multiplayer in Augmented Reality
I am using https://peerjs.com/. I am currently using their default brokering system (which is the default out-of-the-box). it seems (when necessary) i am able to run my own version as provided at: https://github.com/peers/peerjs-server

How would you create a board game backend?
Without backend, you can choose WebRTC for all communication b/w players. peerjs is a good library for that. However, I would still suggest not to take this approach as it can be overwhelming.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing peer and peerjs you can also consider the following projects:
simple-peer - 📡 Simple WebRTC video, voice, and data channels
Socket.io - Realtime application framework (Node.JS server)
mediasoup - Cutting Edge WebRTC Video Conferencing
Pion WebRTC - Pure Go implementation of the WebRTC API
coturn - coturn TURN server project
simple-peer-files - A library to send files over WebRTC
js-libp2p-webrtc-star - libp2p WebRTC transport that includes a discovery mechanism provided by the signalling-star
peerjs-go - Golang PeerJS implementation
Peer - Sane and easy to use WebRTC Peer implementation
boardgame.io - State Management and Multiplayer Networking for Turn-Based Games
