To elaborate a bit about the tech. De site is plain html and plain javascript. No node server just a heroku instance that host the GUN instance.

The website itself is very simple and uses MediaSource Extension https://www.w3.org/TR/media-source/ to make the streaming go smooth. This is often used by players that use dynamic bitrates for different network etc.. Such as HLS, Shaka player.

This is all brought together in this project. Webrtc is only used for getting the screen and microphone. There is no signaling stun server etc needed for this to work.

I have to come back to you about finding the IP address. I am not sure about this. Will ask the GUN community. Maybe you can explain why this case is interesting and for which cases?
