    > dedicated signalling

    For my small projects I run my HTTP + WebRTC in the same server. My signaling is one POST. Maybe I am missing the complexity, but I don't feel any additional pain compared to running any network service?

    > STUN Karate

    Mind explaining more? I use https://github.com/pion/turn and run my STUN server embedded in my HTTP server. I do do anything but point my `PeerConnection` at `my-service.com`

    There is a very neat implementation of a TURN from Pion

  • How do I deploy a TURN server for WebRTC apps on heroku?
    2 projects | /r/Heroku | 23 Sep 2021
    I've tried node-turn in a node.js server, tried to execute pion/turn binaries directly so far but with no luck. `node-turn` works if I run locally and test it with my public ip address but the same doesn't work on heroku.

  • Chromium based browsers leak users' local IP via WebRTC's foundation attribute

    I see a lot of WebRTC usage just in the LAN. WebRTC sees a lot of usage outside of conferencing!

    * Controlling Robots (formant.io)

    * Security Cameras

    * File Sharing

    * Game Streaming/VNC

    I keep a list of interesting open source WebRTC projects at https://github.com/pion/awesome-pion

    I'm fiddling now and then on an alternative conferencing frontend(Pyrite - https://github.com/garage44/pyrite) for Galene(https://galene.org), which is a SFU that uses Pion.

  • Show HN: AV1 and WebRTC
    8 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 12 Apr 2022
    AV1 support is already available in libwebrtc!

    So when I started building Pion the target use case was to make it easier to build scalable servers. Instead of interacting with a WebRTC servers REST API to query information/load balance I wanted to have it all in one code base. It also is really useful to have Media+Transport decoupled. Lots of use cases I didn't realize grew out of that.

    * Teleoperation/robotics (https://github.com/Ragnar-H/TelloGo)

    * Control remote software (https://github.com/m1k1o/neko)

    * Cross platform file sharing (https://github.com/saljam/webwormhole)

    * Sending pre-recorded media (RTMP/HLS/RTSP -> WebRTC)

    * Custom DataChannel servers/bridges (https://snowflake.torproject.org/)

    Lots of other cool ones in https://github.com/pion/awesome-pion I need to update it. It has been a bit since I have looked through https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/pion/webrtc/v3?tab=importedby
