I am a developer myself. I agree that most of the interviews are biased (forcing us to use whiteboard, paper).

We had a little feature idea to include a screensharing mechanism so developers can use their ide. But sadly, only chrome supports that feature as of yet. We would probably add it later.

Firefox developer here: if you need a feature, feel free to get in touch.

I assume that you mean WebRTC, and we have had it for a long time. Some bits are deactivated by default, but you can activate it with preferences if you need. I assume that any interviewee can be expected to reach into their prefs.

I agree that the candidate should be able to go to prefs and enable features. But I guess that is not an ideal solution. We can temporarily opt for this option though.

WebRTC works as a transport mechanism, but does Firefox actually allow for screen capture?
