PeerConnection refers to the core component of WebRTC (Web Real-Time Communication) that enables direct, peer-to-peer communication between two web browsers or applications. This communication typically involves exchanging real-time audio and video streams, as well as arbitrary data. The PeerConnection API provides a standardized way to establish and manage these connections without requiring a dedicated server for media transfer, although servers are often used for signaling and NAT traversal.
Establishing a PeerConnection involves several key steps. First, each peer creates a RTCPeerConnection object. Then, they
When a PeerConnection is successfully established, it allows for the bidirectional transmission of media and data.
