P2P/serverless browser to Go back end – no DNS/IP required
Demonstration of a browser connecting to Pion WebRTC without a signaling server. - pion/offline-browser-communication
P2P/serverless browser to Go back end – no DNS/IP required launched on December 10, 2019 with 15 votes, #728 of 2,946 launches that month and more than 75% of that year's launches. The site was still online in September 2026, 6 years on.
In plain words
This is a peer-to-peer, serverless browser application with a Go backend that operates without requiring DNS or IP addresses. It enables direct browser-to-backend communication in a decentralized manner, making it suitable for developers building distributed systems or applications that need to function without traditional networking infrastructure. The project is open source and available on GitHub.

Making a cross-platform game in Go using WebRTC Datachannels2025 · pion.ly · ▲72SCTP is a low level protocol focused on reliable packet transmission. Unlike hopelessly flinging packets from one device to another, it makes sure that the packets are correct using CRC, removes duplicate packets, and allows for packets to be sent in any order. Going into an established library, I thought that everything was already implemented and that there wasn't anything to do until I went through the existing issues and organized all the tasks and decided on an order. Sean DuBois (https://github.com/Sean-Der), one of the co-creators and current maintainers of Pion, an…

Weron – A Peer-to-Peer VPN Based on WebRTC Written in Go2022 · github.com · ▲204Hey HN! I just released weron, a P2P VPN that uses WebRTC for transport which I've been working on for the last couple of months. It can create both layer 2/Ethernet and layer 3/IP overlay networks, and the underlying transport layer can be easily embedded to write your own P2P apps with Go. Compared to for example Tailscale, WireGuard and ZeroTier, its much harder to block on a network level and also significantly easier to set up, while not sacrifing much performance. I'd love to get your feedback :)

Website: http://angeldu.st My single server hosts 250+K active players in one giant, dynamic fantasy world. Angeldust's game server is pervasively multithreaded, implementing John Carmack's dream of processing an immutable world state each tick. Both world handling and network traffic routing uses any number of threads. For networking, a typical game session only uses ~3Kbps of bandwidth, enabling decent play even over 2G/EDGE networks.
