amazon-kinesis-video-streams-webr VS webrtc

Yes! I have used it in production with these.

* FaceTime @ Apple https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT212619

* KVS and Chime @ AWS https://github.com/awslabs/amazon-kinesis-video-streams-webr.... Lots of security cameras and robots use it, not public though.

* Lightstream https://golightstream.com . Cloud compositing and other magic.

It is kind of amazing everywhere you will find WebRTC. Stadia, Boston Dynamics, Zoom, Meet, Security Systems, Drones etc... It is probable that you use WebRTC in production everyday :)

I am really excited about https://github.com/sepfy/libpeer. It has examples ready for ESP32 etc....

When working on KVS I wasn't familiar with the embedded space at all. I saw 'heavyweight' embedded where you were running on Linux. Then you had RTOS/No OS at all. I wasn't prepared for these devices at all. If we can make WebRTC work in the embedded space I think it will really accelerate what developers are able to build!

Remotely driven cars, security cameras, robots in hospitals that bring iPads to infectious patients etc... Creative people are building amazing things. The WebRTC/video space needs to work harder and support them :)

I love how diverse the WebRTC space is now. Outside of this implementation you have plenty of other options!

See https://github.com/sipsorcery/webrtc-echoes for examples of some running against each other.

This is not true, there are actually multiple WebRTC implementations in different languages besides the reference library: aiortc (python), libdatachannel (C++), sipsorcery (C#),webrtc-rs (rust), werift (Typescript), and Amazon Kinesis (C)

I have opened an issue on GitHub [1], we can continue there.

webrtc

webrtc.rs is a port of Pion (which we also use). It's a better fit for server-side use

I want to use peer-to-peer communication and data transfer for my next side project (client-server web app). I've been doing some research and WebRTC seems to be the only option for this on the client. There are a ton of libraries and product offering for facilitating STUN/TURN servers as a service, but I'm quite interested in learning more about these protocols. That being said, I'm not the best rust programmer (part of the reason of using Rust as the server is so that I can learn more), and the signalling protocols seem rather complicated. I've looked at https://github.com/webrtc-rs/webrtc and it seems promising.

Regarding webrtc-rs. I'm a contributor to that project. The future of str0m could very well be to roll it in under that umbrella. However in these early days, I think it's better to keep str0m separate, until such time that it covers most of webrtc-rs functionality. Discussion here: https://github.com/webrtc-rs/webrtc/issues/230

This project was really fun for me is that I got to use https://webrtc.rs webrtc.rs Rust implementation of WebRTC that is based on Pion. The performance is fantastic and it is so easy to fetch + build. I had a great experience with it. It is really impressive how far the project has come!

I'm confused, you're saying as far as you can tell webrtc-rs does everything pion can do, but also saying "when the project is ready"? Can you explain what you mean? Also it seems webrtc.rs website says it's not production ready yet? How true is that?
