LibSourcey
A modular C++20 toolkit for real-time media, WebRTC, and networking, built as a lightweight alternative to libwebrtc.
What is LibSourcey?
icey is a modular C++20 toolkit that provides a complete real-time media stack, integrating WebRTC, FFmpeg, and async networking into a single, lightweight library. It solves the problem of fragmented media development by offering a cohesive alternative to Google's libWebRTC and GStreamer, with faster builds, smaller binaries, and no dependency conflicts.
C++ developers building real-time media applications, such as video conferencing systems, media servers, live streaming platforms, or server-side recording tools, who need fine-grained control over media pipelines and WebRTC signaling.
Developers choose icey for its modular design, fast build times, and comprehensive feature set—including built-in signaling and TURN server—which eliminates the need to integrate multiple disparate libraries and reduces deployment complexity.
