WebRTC - One Byte Explainer

This is a submission for the Web Game Challenge: One Byte Explainer

Explainer

WebRTC is like magic walkie-talkies for the internet, letting friends talk or play games together live through web browsers, without needing anything extra to download.

Additional Context

WebRTC stands for Web Real-Time Communication. It's a technology that lets web browsers communicate directly with each other for:

  • Voice Calling - Talking to friends like on a phone.
  • Video Chat - Seeing and talking to friends, like video calls.
  • File Sharing - Sending files or game data quickly, without going through a server.
  • P2P Networking - Playing games together in real time over the internet.

It is a huge concept and its a very essential concept compared to real time game development which is explained easily in the explainer
