Awesome client-side resource! WebRTC is poised to hit the big time now that it is supported by iOS 11. For both of my questions below I will link options from previous discussions[1]; any experience you can share would be appreciated. 1) What is the best option to implement a server that can tie into WebRTC for audio/video/screensharing? https://github.com/mappum/electron-webrtc https://github.com/mappum/electron-webrtc - simple but bulky Node.js WebRTC via a hidden Electron process https://chromium.googlesource.com/external/webrtc https://chromium.googlesource.com/external/webrtc - C++ Chromium WebRTC https://github.com/jitsi/jitsi-videobridge https://github.com/jitsi/jitsi-videobridge - Java video conferencing https://github.com/Kurento/kurento-media-server https://github.com/Kurento/kurento-media-server | https://github.com/OpenVidu/openvidu https://github.com/OpenVidu/openvidu - Node.js media server transitioning after Twilio hired key devs https://www.wowza.com/products/capabilities/webrtc-streaming-software https://www.wowza.com/products/capabilities/webrtc-streaming... - commercial; in preview 2) What is the best minimal WebRTC server-side option just for UDP? https://github.com/js-platform/node-webrtc https://github.com/js-platform/node-webrtc - Node.js native module with mystical pre-built binaries https://github.com/HumbleNet/HumbleNet/ https://github.com/HumbleNet/HumbleNet/ - C++ Mozilla + Humble Bundle code drop that does signalling via WebSockets (instead of STUN/TURN/ICE?) https://github.com/rawrtc/rawrtc https://github.com/rawrtc/rawrtc - C with CLI examples; media someday? https://github.com/rawrtc/rawrtc/issues/4 https://github.com/rawrtc/rawrtc/issues/4 https://github.com/seemk/WebUdp https://github.com/seemk/WebUdp - prototype C++ WebRTC datachannel server for Linux looking for help https://github.com/brkho/client-server-webrtc-example https://github.com/brkho/client-server-webrtc-example - C++ MVP using Chromium WebRTC http://blog.brkho.com/2017/03/15/dive-into-client-server-web-games-webrtc/ http://blog.brkho.com/2017/03/15/dive-into-client-server-web... -- [1] A real world guide to WebRTC | https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14787285 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14787285 (Jul 2017, 59 comments)

  Sadly, while WebRTC is "supported" by iOS 11, it is disabled in web apps added to the home screen, as well as any embedded web views like UIWebView or WKWebView. Which leads to the wonderful UX that if a user adds your website that uses WebRTC to the homescreen, you need to catch a TypeError from getUserMedia being undefined, and display a modal to them telling them to delete the homescreen shortcut and always type in the URL if they want to use the website.

    Whoever allowed that decision to be made should be ashamed of themselves and embarrassed. Safari really is the new IE.
    - Klathmon 9y ago
      The cynical part of me thinks it's to keep "alternate" browser apps like Chrome and Firefox on iOS from having the feature, but i'm really hoping that it's something much less nefarious. But either way it's a really shitty move in my opinion.

  Yes! That was part of the goal of these changes. We want SIP.js to be a SIP stack, not a WebRTC wrapper.

  We accidentally terminated our demo account for non-payment (whoops). It should be working now. We have made sure that this will not happen in the future.
