## What it is
A collection of JavaScript demos and code samples demonstrating the WebRTC APIs, hosted at webrtc.github.io/samples. It covers media capture (getUserMedia/getDisplayMedia), RTCPeerConnection, data channels, SDP munging, and WebRTC statistics.

## Use cases
- learn how to use getUserMedia to access camera and microphone
- test peer connection between two browser tabs
- see how to negotiate data channels in WebRTC
- experiment with SDP munging and codec selection
- capture and record media streams in the browser
- try screensharing with getDisplayMedia
- check WebRTC stats and constraints handling

## When to choose
- you are learning the WebRTC APIs and want runnable browser examples
- you need reference code for media capture or peer connection patterns
- you want to verify WebRTC behavior across browsers using adapter.js

## When to avoid
- you need a production-ready WebRTC application or signaling server
- you want a library or SDK to embed rather than example code
- you need help debugging general WebRTC issues unrelated to the samples
