Elixir WebRTC is an implementation of the W3C WebRTC API in the Elixir programming language.
Elixir WebRTC comes with optional support for DataChannels, but it must be explicitely turned on.
WebRTC is an open, real-time communication standard that allows you to send video, audio, and generic data between peers over the network. It places a lot of emphasis on low latency (targeting values in low hundreds of milliseconds end-to-end) and was designed to be used peer-to-peer.
WebRTC is implemented by all of the major web browsers and is available as a JavaScript API, there’s also native WebRTC clients for Android and iOS and implementation in other programming languages (Pion, webrtc.rs, and now Elixir WebRTC).
This is free and open source software.
