FAQPage Schema
How do I build a WebRTC video call application?

WebRTC video calls require implementing signaling (offer/answer exchange), ICE candidate handling, and MediaStream management. This Skill provides the complete pattern for peer-to-peer connections, including connection state handling, stream negotiation, and React UI components to get you streaming in minutes.

Can I use WebRTC for live streaming and broadcasting?

Yes. WebRTC supports live streaming through peer-to-peer and server-assisted topologies. This Skill covers Twitch-style broadcasting setups with real-time chat, viewer metrics, and multi-party conference modes for webinars and events.

How do I implement screen sharing in a video conference?

Screen sharing uses the getDisplayMedia API to capture display output as a MediaStream, then transmits it through WebRTC connections. This Skill handles the capture, stream switching, and peer notification required for seamless screen sharing alongside camera video.

What's the best way to handle real-time messaging in video calls?

Real-time messaging over video calls uses Socket.io to establish a dedicated signaling and chat channel alongside WebRTC streams. This Skill integrates Socket.io messaging with video components so participants can chat, share metadata, and coordinate without latency.

Can I build multi-party video conferences with WebRTC?

Multi-party conferences require mesh or SFU topologies. This Skill implements peer-to-peer mesh patterns for smaller groups and multi-party conference handling with connection management across all participants, supporting team meetings and webinars.

Do I need a signaling server for WebRTC connections?

Yes. Signaling exchanges offer/answer SDP and ICE candidates between peers to establish connections. This Skill implements signaling logic and shows how Socket.io or similar transports relay these messages, then WebRTC takes over for media flow.
