Web (alpha)

The agora_rtc_engine for web is currently in alpha stage, and the documentation is incomplete and it has only been tested on desktop web at this time.

The agora_rtc_engine web is built on top of iris_web, a wrapper for the Agora Web SDK 4.x. This helps align the Native SDK (Android/iOS/macOS/Windows) APIs through the Agora Web SDK 4.x. Please note that the agora_rtc_engine web utilizes the Agora Web SDK 4.x underneath, so only a subset of the Native SDK APIs can be implemented on the web. If the APIs return AgoraRtcException with a -4 error code, this means these APIs are not supported at this time.

Download the iris_web(see the link below) artifact and include it as a <script /> tag in your <your-project>/web/index.html file. For example:

Project structure

<your-project>
|__web
   |__index.html
