Ant Media Server provides official SDKs for multiple platforms to help you quickly integrate ultra-low latency WebRTC streaming into your applications. All SDKs support publishing and playing WebRTC streams with sub-500ms latency.

​
Available SDKs

Choose the SDK that matches your platform:

JavaScript SDK

For web applications and browsers. Supports WebRTC publish/play, data channels, and peer-to-peer connections.

Android SDK

Native Android SDK for mobile apps. Optimized for performance with hardware encoding/decoding support.

iOS SDK

Native iOS SDK for iPhone and iPad apps. Built with Swift/Objective-C compatibility.

React Native SDK

Cross-platform SDK for React Native apps on iOS and Android.

Flutter SDK

Cross-platform SDK for Flutter apps. Single codebase for iOS and Android.

​
Common Features

All SDKs provide the following core capabilities:
  • WebRTC Publishing: Stream video/audio from camera and microphone with ultra-low latency
  • WebRTC Playback: Play live streams with sub-500ms latency
  • Adaptive Bitrate: Automatic quality adjustment based on network conditions
  • Data Channels: Send and receive real-time data alongside video streams
  • Conference Room: Multi-party video conferencing support
  • Peer-to-Peer: Direct WebRTC connections between clients
  • Screen Sharing: Share screen content (platform dependent)

​
Getting Started

1

Choose your platform

Select the SDK that matches your application platform from the list above.
2

Install the SDK

Follow the installation instructions in the specific SDK documentation.
3

Initialize connection

Configure the SDK with your Ant Media Server URL and application name.
4

Publish or play

Use the SDK methods to publish streams from your device or play existing streams.

​
Integration Patterns

​
One-to-Many Broadcasting

Use WebRTC publishing on one device (broadcaster) and WebRTC playback on multiple devices (viewers) for ultra-low latency live streaming. 
// Publisher
webRTCAdaptor.publish(streamId);

// Viewers
webRTCAdaptor.play(streamId);

​
Video Conferencing

Create conference rooms where multiple participants can publish and play each other’s streams simultaneously. 
webRTCAdaptor.joinRoom(roomId);

​
Peer-to-Peer Calls

Establish direct WebRTC connections between two clients for one-on-one video calls. 
webRTCAdaptor.join(streamId);

​
Server Requirements

To use the SDKs, you need:
  • Ant Media Server installed and running (Community or Enterprise Edition)
  • SSL/TLS certificate configured (required for WebRTC in production)
  • WebSocket enabled (default port: 5080 HTTP, 5443 HTTPS)
  • TURN server configured for clients behind restrictive NATs (optional but recommended)
WebRTC requires HTTPS in production environments. Make sure to set up SSL/TLS certificates on your Ant Media Server. See the SSL setup guide for details.

​
Authentication

All SDKs support token-based authentication to secure your streams: 
webRTCAdaptor.publish(streamId, token);
Learn more about authentication and security in the security documentation.
