Version: 0.1.0

This crate provides a client-side (browser) interface to the videocall protocol. The purpose is to take care of the media I/O both for the encoding the current participant and for rendering the media from the remote peers. It also provides tools for listing available media devices and granting access.

This crate intends to make no assumptions about the UI or the HTML of the client app. The only DOM data it needs is the ID of the HtmlVideoElement for the participant's own video display and the ID's of the HtmlCanvasElements into which remote peer video should be renderered.

In addition to its use by Rust UI apps (e.g. via yew), it is intended that this crate be compiled to npm module that could be called from javascript, e.g. in an electron app.

Currently, only the Chrome browser is supported, due to some of the Web APIs that are used.

NOTE: This initial version is a slightly frankenstein result of piecemeal refactoring bits from the original app and stitching them together. It could use cleaning up both the API the internal design.

For more detailed documentation see the doc for each struct.
