Explore options for smaller footprint, browser-based webrtc clients about y-webrtc HOT 6 OPEN

There's a fork of simple-peer that has the extra node modules removed, though it drops support for stream.Duplex. I don't know if it will be maintained however.

This looks pretty cool. Thanks for sharing @neftaly!

I might accept a PR to switch to tiny-simple-peer. My only concern is whether this package works as reliably (well, as reliable as webrtc can be). The package seems as well maintained as simple-peer..

Hi @lukebayes,

Unfortunately, simple-peer is the best battle-proven webrtc solution out there. But feel free to investigate if there are alternatives with a smaller footprint, I'd be intrigued as well.

That's what I was afraid of. I'll see if I can schedule some time to dig in over the coming months.

Please feel free to close this ticket. I just wanted to be sure I wasn't jumping into something others were already pushing on.

Thanks!

Alright, closing. But please feel free to reopen if you find alternatives.

@gfodor is it a good idea to use your fork of simple-peer? Would you accept PRs etc? Any chance you could please turn on issue tracking? Thanks!
