Under the Hood

Open this in two tabs. Everything below is read from the same SDK your app uses.

relay mode —

this tab is host no

"Step aside" disconnects this tab on purpose. If it was the host, watch another tab take over — host migration is the part of the system nobody can normally see happening.

Each app joins a room of its own — the channel plus its name. Leave this blank to watch the bare channel, or type an app (whiteboard, chess) to join the room that app is actually in. Inspecting a room makes this tab a peer in it, and can affect host election there.
