    Peer-to-peer HTTP over WebRTC.

  4. bittorrent-dht

    πŸ•Έ Simple, robust, BitTorrent DHT implementation

    I think the closest you might get is something like the bittorrent dht. There are still bootstrap servers for the first few connections, but there's really no getting away from that, right?

  6. offline-browser-communication

    Discontinued Demonstration of a browser connecting to Pion WebRTC without a signaling server.

    Yep! If you do one non-browser WebRTC agents https://github.com/pion/offline-browser-communication

    This could be possible browser to browser! I don’t think that has ever been an official use case
