I remember working on a simple peer-peer chat using WebRTC [1] and it took me a long time to actually grok what the whole protocol was and how it worked, even with off-the-shelf libraries available. This would have saved me so much time!

Thanks :)

It is really empowering to build stuff quickly. When you hit that wall of abstraction it is so frustrating (especially when debugging).

If there are any topics/ideas you have would love to hear! I want this to be a community owned resource.

This is great! I recently built a similar thing because I wanted to learn more about WebRTC. Fun to see someone else's take.
