Toonin

Toonin is a Chrome Extension coupled with a web app that allows your friends to Tune In to what you're listening to

Overview

Toonin consists of a Chrome extension, a web application, and a signaling server. WebRTC is used to stream the music from the provider to its peers.

In order to exchange information, a signaling server must exist between the provider (Chrome Extension) and the peers (Web App)

Development setup

cd into each directory and run

npm i

What's Next?
