Description

WebRTC (Web Real-Time Communication) is an open-source project designed to enable peer-to-peer real-time communication between web browsers, mobile platforms, and connected devices without the need for any plugins or native applications. It allows users to establish a secure audio/video connection between two or more devices, as well as exchange data between them. It utilizes the JavaScript API and HTML5 WebRTC standards to make direct connections with other browsers or devices, providing a secure connection and allowing for data transfer without the need for external servers. This makes the technology particularly useful for web-based applications such as voice and video chat, file sharing, and gaming. WebRTC also supports data encryption, making it a secure choice for applications that handle sensitive data.
