Recently I wanted to watch a movie with a friend online. I had the movie locally on my computer and could not find an easy way to watch that movie together. So I built it myself :-).

This is still a prototype! It is functional - but you should be using Chrome and your desktop computer . But if people find this project useful, I'd be glad to support other platforms as well!

Technology: I am using a simple nodejs server in the backend and react in the frontend. The server is used shortly to create a WebRTC connection. From then on all communication is done using WebRTC only. Thankfully you can easily share the content of a HTML video component using captureStream/mozCaptureStream :-).

I would love to hear your feedback!
