WebRTC connections come in two flavors, STUN and TURN. STUN uses an intermediary server, to make a connection through your firewall, to another established peer. For certain connections, some users, suchas those on a CGNAT, will require a TURN server to relay the connection. At the current moment, ourfore.st only supplies STUN servers, however we do plan on looking into TURN relay servers in the future. WebRTC connections come in two flavors, STUN and TURN.

This means that each viewer uses up part of a streamers bandwidth, comparitively to HLS, in which the streaming-server takes the load of multiple connections off of the streamers connection (assuming they're it's not hosted on the same connection.) Furthermore, WebRTC's video-chat roots prioritizes real-time communication over video/audio quality. That being said, WebRTC requires no extra setup, and no extra software other than this website and your browser.
