this looks very similar to this webrtc sample by muaz khan: https://www.webrtc-experiment.com/Pluginfree-Screen-Sharing/...

If you use his code you should reference him

I still remember the glorious days when “party” meant dropping acid and a bunch of people getting naked in the spare room. Ah, the glorious days of...February.

But, sure, WebRTC. Let’s give it a shot.

Does anyone know of a tool like this for streaming high-quality photos? I’ve been playing some board games with friends using an iPhone on a mic stand - we couldn’t use video streaming tools because the quality has been all over the place (and you can’t zoom in on the board.) So right now we have a simple app that takes a high-quality photo every few seconds and uploads it to a web server where all the players can view it - their browsers are long-polling for new images.

But it seems that WebRTC could improve this by not requiring the server code. I also just wonder what else there is along these lines.

Whats the business model here? You still need turn servers if hole punching fails, and video is pretty bandwidth heavy.

"Up to 10 friends can view your screen. Limited by your CPU/RAM" - what hardware specifications are required for this limit? Could I invite more people with faster CPU and more RAM?

You may want to check https://whereby.com/, it works on the same principle, but you get to choose your own URL suffix, thus making link sharing easier.

I didn't realize that WebRTC had screen sharing as part of it, maybe I'll try to make a toy version of this during my quarantine down time.

Looks like audio is not supported?

How’d you acquire that domain?

This show hn is blatant ripoff and fork of muaz khan's webrtc experiment.

That project is several years old.

This is HN after all, so no comment thread is complete without a bunch of nitpicking the Web site itself.

There's a bunch of grammatical errors on the site (space after exclamation mark, missing words), which prevents me from trusting it.

The design is also very... strange. It looks like a mess. (Sorry!)

There's that first logo "BA net" which looks pretty bad, like someone took someone elses app icon and used Paint to draw a rectangle and some text above it.

Everything around the header is positioned weirdly. My eyes don't know where to focus. There's no visual hierarchy. (Also, what's with that weird "party" icon at the right? At least make it the same size as the BA net logo, and align it to the top right.)

Above the header there's a sort of feature list, I thought it was a menu at first. Why use a period to separate items? Maybe move it down to the features list along with some context ("Here's what you can use it for...")

The big button looks ok, but it's encased in a grey border. Why is there a border around it?

Same with the feature list. The border just makes it look ugly. There's no padding to the left of the "Features" header, and the first item randomly doesn't have a border. Why?

Is anyone actually using those audio and text chat iframes? First of all, they're way to small to serve a practical purpose, and they also have a border again.

The operating system icons don't look nice against the grey background. Are they even needed?

Finally there's some mess in the bottom menu link items. Just a bunch of random stuff, I guess? Maybe just remove it, and use some proper CSS instead of periods and no-breaking space characters.

You're using a lot of boxes that don't align, sometimes there's a border, there's all sorts of different font sizes. It's kind of sloppy, which reflects poorly on the underlying product.
