webcall

The telephone, a supernatural instrument before whose miracles we used to stand amazed, and which we now employ without giving it a thought, to summon our tailor or order an ice cream. --M.Proust (by mehrvarz)

Amazing work! The WebRTC community needs something like this so bad. Not only will this push a bunch of users toward self-hosted/free software but will also inspire others to build cool things :)
If/when you hit scaling challenges I would love to help! I maintain github.com/pion/turn and github.com/pion/webrtc. You can see that with how screego[0] does it.
Happy to help however I can (even if not using Pion!) One of the reasons I built it was so that I could put my TURN and Signaling server in the same process. It makes it way easier to tie your auth together for signaling+TURN. Then if you do go down the SFU route lots of interesting things you could do.
