Would it be possible to make a drop-in substitute for node-webrtc using electron-spawn? #14

This might not be as efficient as node-webrtc, since you'd have the overhead of electron. But it seems like a lot of people would like an easy-to-use WebRTC implementation for Node. At the very least, it could be used for development.

That said... is there already something out there that does something similar?

using electron-prebuilt, xvfb-run and electron-spawn is my current
workflow. I don't think it could be a drop in replacement because it's a
separate process and runtime. but it could probably be packaged better

Do you have an opinion on this? It seems to do what I was thinking of. https://github.com/mappum/electron-webrtc

hahaha wow that is such an epic hack. seems reasonable though, given the constraints. only thing i'd be cautious of is perf issues due to it serializing everything over base64 + JSON
