  • Low end-to-end latency (1-4 s).
  • Passcode and third-party auth

  • Add mouse/keyboard control via noVNC
  • Research discord bot: accept requests for new rooms, start and report status, set up discord auth, command for modifying access list.
  • Add timing information to webm_streaming_chunk
  • refactor webm_streaming_chunk to webm_media_source and attempt to merge upstream
  • Implement third-party (chatbot automated) auth
  • Set up CD to Vagrant hub for the host project
  • Set up CI for the environment: test that stack works and that video streams
  • Set up a deploy configuration with static client files
  • Fix Firefox compatibility
  • Optimize mobile layout
  • Create a new non-admin user to run the GUI

Travis Deployment to Github Pages

Shared Space uses Travis for continuous integration. When the build succeeds, Travis will deploy to Github pages if the GITHUB_TOKEN variable is set in the project's settings. See here for generating a Github token, and see here for adding the token to Travis.
