WebRTC is an open framework for the web that ENABLES Real Time Communications in the browser. It includes the fundamental building blocks for high-quality communications on the web, such as NETWORK, audio and video components used in voice and video chat applications.

These components, when IMPLEMENTED in a browser, can be accessed through a JAVASCRIPT API, enabling developers to easily implement their own RTC web app.

The WebRTC effort is being standardized on an API level at the W3C and at the protocol level at the IETF.
