RFC 8832: WebRTC Data Channel Establishment Protocol

In plain English — editorial summary, not part of the RFC

The WebRTC framework specifies protocol support for direct interactive rich communication using audio, video, and data between two peers' web browsers. This document specifies a simple protocol for establishing symmetric data channels between the peers. It uses a two-way handshake and allows sending of user data without waiting for the handshake to complete.
