Support for Mac OS X for this framework

Hello @noahmehl

Thanks for this library. Is it possible to extend this to support Mac OS X as OS X is adopting many iOS features. Seems likely but not sure how easy or possible it is.

Thanks
Vijay

@sei-vsarvepalli I'm not sure I really understand the request. Are you asking if this could be extended to provide the WebRTC framework functionality to WKWebView for Swift in MacOS X?

[sei-vsarvepalli]

Hello @noahmehl
Yes - sorry if that wasn't clear. It will be good to extend the framework to support wkwebview in Mac OS X Swift.

@sei-vsarvepalli I don't see why not, but this would require sponsorship, or it likely will stay open forever.

@noahmehl I concur with @sei-vsarvepalli here, having this framework in Mac OS Swift would be a game changer and avoid going through a few hundreds Swift / Obj-C hoops.

I suppose there isn't any progress, announcement on this ?

The only other option we have is using Electron for MacOS which isn't what I'd call elegant :/

I tried to pass the hat around in my contacts to look for funding, assuming that is the hold up. Currently nobody has stepped up! If things change I will bring @noahmehl an offer for support and maybe this can happen then.

@sei-vsarvepalli thanks for the update. Just FYI, we're extending the current Pod for Video support. I'll update here when we have something with that.

@sei-vsarvepalli we should have video support now. We are still actively working on the twilio WebRTC implementation as well.

Out of topic (kind of) @noahmehl

Note: to get MacOSx i think it can be done with the iosRTC WebRTC.framework build.

On iosRTC side we released 6.0.17 that fix issue with ios 14.3 and webRTC-adapter SHIM and many other minor issues.

I really think the future for iosRTC is to create a library and made the cordova plug-in using the library. So the effort can be mutualized instead of spread. We have nice features coming to 6.1 with Typescript implementation, 6.2 screen capture, 7.0 android SHIM for enumerate deiced and update to M79, and 8.0 with Transceiver and M87 support.
