As a browser author, are there any alternate implementations of WebRTC besides the one all of the browsers use?
From my research I was kind of shocked that the answer might be no.
- cjbprime 8y agoA few, e.g. https://github.com/EricssonResearch/openwebrtc https://github.com/EricssonResearch/openwebrtc Surprisingly large amount of dependencies in a conforming implementation. (e.g. SCTP for datachannels!)
- rjsw 8y agoAlso it seems to have been decided that you have to use SCTP-in-UDP (RFC 6951) in order to get though firewalls, which is only implemented in FreeBSD so far, so an implementation will include a userspace SCTP library even if the operating system has it in the kernel as well.
- glandium 8y agoNot that it will help you because it's not open source, but Edge probably doesn't use the same implementation as other browsers.
- dustfinger 8y ago> it's not open source I was wondering if it was. I am disappointed to hear that it is not :-(
