Demonstration of connecting a Go process with your browser, and no backend is required!
If you are building a PWA you could have two browsers connect to each other in the same LAN, with no internet access required to bootstrap the connection. Just choose two unique IDs and then they could find each other. I would love to build a chat application that maybe auto-connected people if they were inside the same network.
My motivation for building this is showing what WebRTC can be used for, and maybe pushing the standards bodies to support this behavior more. I also work on https://github.com/pion/webrtc https://github.com/pion/webrtc a full Go implementation of WebRTC and just enjoy the space.
Would love to hear what people think, someone started a twitter thread about it https://twitter.com/_developit/status/1203352686869004289 https://twitter.com/_developit/status/1203352686869004289. Seems like a super cool idea and I think could really enable some cool things. The WebRTC API doesn't fully enable this yet, but hopefully this will get people excited about it and we will see what happens :)
- Sean-Der 7y agoI am super passionate about the technology and able to put the work in, just not always sure how to get people excited. If you are interested in getting involved or have feedback I would love to hear it! thanks for checking out the project
