3. stun

   2 4 729 6.5 Go

   A Go implementation of STUN

   

   This isn't true.

   In 2017 appear.in published some numbers. They saw ~15% were not able to do P2P. https://medium.com/@fippo/what-kind-of-turn-server-is-being-...

   Reading your stackoverflow link my guess is that you aren't using STUN. A P2P connection can't be established without a NAT hole punch.

   Also if possible I would avoid the terms `Full-cone NAT` and `Symmetric NAT` they don't do a good job of describing what is actually happening. NAT Mapping/NAT Filtering is the best way to describe it. I wrote a little bit about it here [0]. To see what type of NAT you have try stun-nat-behaviour[1]

4. node-datachannel

   3 2 355 9.1 C++

   WebRTC For Node.js and Electron (including WebSocket Client & Server). libdatachannel node bindings.

   

5. trystero

   4 30 1,545 9.1 JavaScript

   ✨🤝✨ Build instant multiplayer webapps, no server required — Magic WebRTC matchmaking over BitTorrent, Nostr, MQTT, IPFS, Supabase, and Firebase

   

   WebTorrent is obviously well suited for p2p file distribution, but using a minimal subset of the protocol also provides a nice hack for easily bootstrapping peer connections between web app users. Piggybacking on public mediums already designed to do peer exchange can let you rapidly prototype a WebRTC project without the hassle of running your own server anywhere.

   I built a library that explores this idea: https://github.com/dmotz/trystero

6. werift-webrtc

   5 11 528 9.5 TypeScript

   WebRTC Implementation for TypeScript (Node.js), includes ICE/DTLS/SCTP/RTP/SRTP/WEBM/MP4

   

   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.

7. webrtc-interop

   6 6 193 8.6 C++

   Simple useful interoperability tests for WebRTC libraries. If you are a WebRTC library developer we'd love to include you!

    ❤️ Streaming torrent app for Mac, Windows, and Linux

    

11. Standard

    9 77 29,309 5.1 JavaScript

    🌟 JavaScript Style Guide, with linter & automatic code fixer

    

12. simple-peer

    10 15 7,609 0.0 JavaScript

    📡 Simple WebRTC video, voice, and data channels

    

13. Pion WebRTC

    11 91 14,780 9.3 Go

    Pure Go implementation of the WebRTC API

    

    I originally went the same route as you, and found that https://github.com/pion/webrtc is probably the best package out there for webrtc. I learned go just for it, and it paid off tenfold. Less memory, more connections, lower latency.

14. aquatic

    12 16 528 7.7 Rust

    High-performance open BitTorrent tracker (UDP, HTTP, WebTorrent)

    

    If you run your tracker on Linux and an info hash whitelist approach would work for your use case, it might be worthwhile having a look at aquatic_ws [0]. It relies on tungstenite [1] for websockets and achieves around 20x the throughput of the reference implementation when running with four threads.

15. tungstenite-rs

    13 15 2,092 8.4 Rust

    Lightweight stream-based WebSocket implementation for Rust.
