WebRTC Video Call Tutorial with PeerJS Alternative

A tutorial shows how to build a 1:1 browser video call by opening two tabs in the same channel and publishing each tab’s camera.

It uses the @metered-ca/peer SDK to render the other participant’s stream in a single-file, client-side JavaScript setup.

The approach acts as a PeerJS alternative by handling signaling, TURN, and reconnect logic for you.

This lowers the complexity of browser video chat by removing the need to run your own signaling server.
