Now that I've hit you over the head with caution...

Want to send encrypted WebRTC messages and video calls with no downloads, no sign-ups and no tracking?

This prototype uses WebRTC to establish an encrypted browser-to-browser connection. Everything is stored locally in browser storage and cleared when you clear the site data from your browser - true zerodata privacy!

I feel like this would pair well with Nostr for discovery.

I want to say "Why not Matrix?" Since the uses are same (e2e chats, calls, video, and VR), but the fact that yours is focused on less server involvement is cool. I wonder if you removed the peer id generation from the page, could you have the connection page be totally static (i.e. I could just open a html file either locally, from a server, or IPFS link, and from there add the peer details myself).

Thanks.

It's possible to have it entirely static and broker webrtc connections client-side, but I haven't figured out a user experience that would make it "work".
