    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!

    Lots of other WebRTC implementation exist (in many languages). Happy to help if you have any questions

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

    Lots of great WebRTC implementations exist. Do you want to stick with node.js?

    I am a big fan of https://github.com/shinyoshiaki/werift-webrtc it is pure Typescript.

    Check out https://github.com/sipsorcery/webrtc-echoes for all the other implementations.

    WebRTC has so many great implementations now! The author of the C# implementation started a really great project webrtc-echoes[0] that shows them all working together.

    The next big challenge in the space seems to be getting widely available congestion control. The hard part is making sure it is understandable and customizable for everyones use cases.

    I have worked four jobs related to https://github.com/pion/webrtc and one for https://webrtcforthecurious.com

    Two companies used Pion. The other two were just using the protocol (WebRTC)

    In my experience Go has been relatively approachable for people that are good at PHP. It has a great standard library and a pretty solid ecosystem, though frameworks arenā€™t as popular in Go. There are some well regarded libraries for things like WebRTC via https://github.com/pion/webrtc WebSicket via https://github.com/nhooyr/websocket

    Don't try to make RTC yourself, it looks easy, but in fact, it's a really hard problem to solve. Use https://pion.ly/ it's a pretty solid package they also have a discord/slack channel with a lot of helpful people there.

    Maybe you can reuse some of this code: https://github.com/pion/webrtc/blob/master/examples/data-channels/main.go
