How it works
</h1>
<p>
WebRTC allows browsers to browsers direct connections. This allows the best latency as it avoids round trip through a server,
which is important with real time communications. But it also ensures the privacy of your communications. VROOM takes advantage of those
new WebRTC technologies, and does the following:
<ul>
<li>When a client joins a room, it establishes a Websocket link to VROOM. This is called the signaling channel. With this, all peers are able
to exchange small messages between them. But messages sent through this channels is routed through VROOM server, so it's not yet peer to peer</li>
<li>When a second peer joins the same room, he get through this signaling channel informations about how to connedct directly to the other one</li>*
<li>Now, both peer exchange their video and audio stream directly</li>
<li>The signaling channel stays open and is used to transmit non sensitive informations (peer colors synchronization, notification of muting/kicking etc...)</li>
<li>Everything else (audio/video/text chat) is sent through data channels
</ul>
</p>
<div class="alert alert-info">
As long as possible, data channels are established directly between peers, but in some situations, this is not possible. In those case
data streams are relayed through a TURN server
