WebRTC Binaries for iOS and macOS

This repository contains unofficial distribution of WebRTC framework binaries for iOS and macOS.

Since version M80, Google has deprecated their mobile binary libraries distributions (Was officially using the GoogleWebRTC pod). To get the most up to date WebRTC library, you can compile it on your own, or you can use precompiled binaries from here or other sources.

📦 Releases

The binary releases correspond with official Chromium releases and branches as specified in the Chromium dashboard.

💡 Things to know

• All binaries in this repository are compiled from the official WebRTC source code without any modifications to the source code or to the output binaries.
