WebRTC: Why Art Thou Such A PITA?

[seanmtracey]

[Abstract of your talk]

In this talk, I propose to talk about the history and status of WebRTC, how it's still terribly unwieldy for people to get started with - even after a decade since it's release, and how we can use Node.js to build P2P applications at scale with a little bit of prodding.

[A bit about you, e.g. current job, twitter handle, etc.]

@seanmtracey ! the legend returns!

Would love to have you back at one of our upcoming events - we don't have a specific date yet - but how about October?

And as for WebRTC - I remember there being a lot of interesting node apps exploding onto the scene a while back - p2p skype replacements! - that were full of promise and it being very exciting. What happened??? Is node.js WebRTC not quietly powering everything we do online by now?

Look forward to it.

Second half of October would work for me! As for what happened to P2P? it was PITA, hence the talk title 😂

Hey @seanmtracey - we are locked in for Tuesday 24th October at Makers Academy - would love you to speak. Can you make it that date?

As a code demo for WebRTC can you live code us a new chat platform for LNUG? Discord is not doing it for us

[seanmtracey]

24th works for me! I'll be there!

As for the code demo, don't tempt me - I've got so few blood, sweat, and tears left to give 😂

[admataz]

Excellent! you are on the bill.

Hey @seanmtracey - hope you're all good for tomorrow?.

I will try get to the venue as soon after 5pm as possible to start making things ready. Makers have a zoom - based video set up for broadcasting to their projectors- let me know if you can't run that and we will make a plan.

Also Let me know if you need anything special - otherwise we will just plug your laptop in and go... looking forward to seeing you there.

[admataz]

for the zoom - can you ping me your email address to the @lnugorg twitter ?

[seanmtracey]

All good for this evening, will ping over my email to the Twitter now. Will be around for just after 6, Zoom shouldn't be a problem 👌
