You should have some experience building web applications using HTML and JavaScript. Maybe, you are building an application right now, or have an idea of a new application that utilizes the power of audio and video communication between users. You might also need to deliver an application with high-performance data transfer between users.

You should have a firm grasp of programming concepts and web development, but the book is written for even a novice web engineer. The concepts are covered in-depth and taken one bit at a time, rather than charging ahead into the advanced topics. You may not know anything about WebRTC or have only heard a bit about it, and want to learn the inner workings of real-time communication.
