一覽

WebRTC Peer Connection is the lower-level API for creating direct browser-to-browser connections for audio, video, and data. Specialists understand ICE, STUN/TURN, SDP offer/answer signaling, and media constraints. Used by video conferencing, screen sharing, IoT, and real-time collaboration platforms. Salary band: $130–190k mid-level. 4–6 weeks to proficiency with networking fundamentals; 2+ months from basics.

什麼是 WebRTC Peer Connection

WebRTC Peer Connection (RTCPeerConnection API) is the core browser API for establishing direct peer-to-peer connections between browsers. It handles the complex network negotiation (ICE candidate exchange, STUN/TURN, SDP offer/answer) so developers can focus on application logic. Once connected, you can transmit audio, video, and arbitrary data with minimal latency. The connection requires a signaling mechanism (separate from WebRTC), usually a WebSocket server, to exchange SDP offers/answers and ICE candidates. After connection is negotiated, data flows peer-to-peer.

❓ 常見問題

What's the difference between Peer Connection and Data Channel?
RTCPeerConnection is the connection; RTCDataChannel is a data transport over that connection. You can have multiple data channels per peer connection.
What are ICE candidates and why do I need them?
ICE candidates are potential connection paths (IP/port pairs). Browser collects candidates via STUN/TURN. Most direct path wins; TURN is fallback if direct P2P impossible.
Do I need a STUN/TURN server?
Yes. STUN helps discover your external IP (works 85% of time). TURN relays traffic when P2P impossible (NAT traversal). Both are essential for real-world deployments.
What's SDP and how do I handle it?
SDP (Session Description Protocol) describes media capabilities and connection info. You don't generate SDP manually; WebRTC does. You exchange SDP blobs with signaling server.
How do I test WebRTC connections?
Chrome DevTools WebRTC Internals (chrome://webrtc-internals) shows connection stats, candidates, and codec info. Use this for debugging connection issues.
