WebRTC Video Sever

An easy WebRTC video server which enable users to

• 1-to-1 video chat
• Pure WebRTC; no external libraries
• Works in current versions of Firefox and Chrome

Usage

The signaling server uses Node.js and ws and can be started as such:

$ npm install ws
$ node server/server.js

With the client running, open client/index.html in a recent version of either Chrome or Firefox.

Note that if using Chrome and opening the file locally, you must run Chrome with the --allow-file-access-from-files flag. Or you could serve the files with a webserver (Python's SimpleHTTPServer is a good option).
