In episode 7 of the web platform podcast, ‘’Web RTC and Designing Realtime Experiences”, we talk with Agility Feat (http://agilityfeat.com/), a design and development firm in the US, Costa Rica, Nicaragua, and Honduras. Agility Feat has been not only building out real-time apps for a while now but they are also actively contributing back to the community around it as well by speaking at events, distributing a RealTime.com newsletter, and more.
Web RTC (http://www.webrtc.org/) is “a free, open project that enables web browsers with Real-Time Communications (RTC) capabilities via simple JavaScript APIs”. It is a peer-to-peer communication tool and its been around for a while. Contrary to popular belief Web RTC is not just video & chat in the browser. It is more than just that, it has data channels, screen sharing, streaming, and much more.
Web RTC is an evolving standard for realtime app development and is gaining popularity quickly in the realtime web community. More browsers are starting to implement it and Agility Feat has seen the capabilities & usefulness of Web RTC to assist in developing the user experience of realtime applications. In this episode Agilty Feat discusses how they approach designing for browsers that don’t support it and how they use Web RTC effectively in their applications.
