WebRTC on a standalone mobile app

Question

I know that WebRTC was designed for browsers, but is it possible to use WebRTC libraries on mobile applications directly?

Thanks!

For iOS, just add this to your CocoaPods Podfile

pod "libjingle_peerconnection"


# Add this to the bottom so it won't have issues with active architecture
post_install do |installer_representation|
    installer_representation.project.targets.each do |target|
        target.build_configurations.each do |config|
            config.build_settings['ONLY_ACTIVE_ARCH'] = 'NO'
            config.build_settings['VALID_ARCHS'] = ['armv7', 'i386']
        end
    end
end

Check this for which revisions are available. Revision 6802.X reflects to this from the actual WebRTC code base.

Android will be added to maven central very soon, I'll make an edit to this when happens.

If you want to manually build WebRTC check out github.com/pristineio/webrtc-build-scripts which also includes a step by step guide for both platforms
