Our great sponsors
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • SaaSHub - Software Alternatives and Reviews
  • libwebrtc

    Clone of https://webrtc.googlesource.com/src with Mozilla's local modifications (by mozilla)

    Of course, browser vendors rarely use the EXACT same library and versions due to compatibility reasons, and differing release cycles. For example, here is Firefox's clone of libWebRTC on Github with their own modifications to the project.

  • mediasoup

    Cutting Edge WebRTC Video Conferencing

    The "Mediasoup" project provides a high level JavaScript/TypeScript interface to the WebRTC APIs. The core logic of this project is implemented in C++/Rust. Consider taking a look at the project if you want an easy-to-use library instead of the low-level libWebRTC APIs. A notable project to mention is the Pion/webrtc project which has a Golang implementation of the WebRTC API. Of course, we should mention the rust port WebRTC.rs. Let’s keep all the rustaceans happy too!

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

  • Pion WebRTC

    Pure Go implementation of the WebRTC API
