<h2>BigBlueButton HTML5 client test server</h2>
<p><ahref="http://bigbluebutton.org/"target="_blank">BigBlueButton</a> is an open source web conferencing system for on-line learning. This is a public test server for the BigBlueButton <ahref="http://docs.bigbluebutton.org/html/html5-overview.html">HTML5 client</a> currently under development.</p>
<p> Our goal for the upcoming release of the HTML5 client is to implement all the <ahref="https://youtu.be/oh0bEk3YSwI">viewer capabilities</a> of the Flash client. Students join online classes as a viewer. The HTML5 client will give remote students the ability to join from their Android and Apple (iOS 11+) devices. Users using the Flash and HTML5 clients can join the same meeting (hence the two choices above). We built the HTML5 client using web real-time communication (WebRTC), <ahref="https://facebook.github.io/react/">React</a>, and <ahref="https://www.mongodb.com/">MongoDB</a>.</p>
<p> What can this developer build of the HTML5 client do right now? Pretty much everything the Flash client can do for viewers except (a) view a desktop sharing stream from the presenter and (b) send/receive webcam streams. We're working on (a) and (b). For now, we are really happy to share with you our progress and get <ahref="https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1gFz5JdN3vD6jxhlVskFYgtEKEcexdDnUzpkwUXwQ4OY/viewform?usp=send_for">your feedback</a> on what has been implemeted so far. Enjoy!</p>
<p> The BigBlueButton project is <ahref="http://bigbluebutton.org/support">supported</a> by a community of developers that care about good design and a streamlined user experience. </p>
<p>See <ahref="http://docs.bigbluebutton.org"target="_blank">Documentation</a> for more information on how you can integrate BigBlueButton with your project.</p>
<p>Users of Chrome and FireFox browsers will benefit from high-quality, low-latency WebRTC audio. (Users of other browsers will seamlessly use Flash-based audio.)</p>
<p>You can upload any PDF presentation or MS office document. BigBlueButton keeps everyone in sync with your current slide, zoom, pan, annotations, and mouse pointer.</p>
