About
The Web Audio API is a browser API for processing and generating audio in web applications.
It uses a modular audio graph built from interconnected audio nodes, supports audio from media files, streams, microphones, and oscillators, and provides real-time effects, filters, and 3D positional audio.
WebRTC (Web Real-Time Communication) is a set of APIs and protocols originally developed by 
Google that enables real-time audio, video, and peer-to-peer data communication in web browsers and mobile applications.
It supports voice and video calls, screen sharing, peer-to-peer file transfer, low-latency streaming, adaptive audio and video codecs such as Opus and VP8, and is natively supported by all major modern desktop and mobile browsers.
