Course structure

The course is built as a walkthrough of how to build a simple WebRTC application using Node.js and JavaScript:

In each lesson, a different aspect of connecting WebRTC sessions is covered. This is done by walking through the code and explaining each aspect of it.

The course also includes two additional modules:

1. Exercises, where you are asked to add a feature to the code, along with our answer to it
2. Fiddles, where we pick and choose a specific single aspect of WebRTC and explain it using a code fiddle
