Sample code for developing an OpenTok screen-sharing extension for Google Chrome and Firefox

screensharing-extensions

This project includes sample code for developing screen-sharing extensions for older versions of of Chrome (71 and lower) and Opera (58 and lower). These extensions allow you to use screen-sharing support in Opera and older versions of Chrome with the OpenTok.js library.

Important: In Chrome 72+, Firefox 52+, and Opera 59+, an extension (or whitelist listing) is no longer needed for screen sharing. The browser prompts the end user for access to the screen, as it would for access to the camera. The extension in this repo is only included to support older versions of Chrome and Opera.

For more information, see:

• The OpenTok documentation on screen sharing
• The README.md file for the Opera and Chrome screen-sharing extension sample in this repo

Note: The Firefox screen-sharing extension in this repo is no longer supported in OpenTok, which does not support versions of Firefox that require a screen-sharing extension.
