How to use mediadevices in WebRTC style in Electron framework.

This is a simple Electron application based on the Quick Start Guide within the Electron documentation. This demo demonstrates how developer can programmatically switches video stream from one device (embbeded webcam, for example) to another device (for example, USB webcam).

Use this app along with the Electron API Demos app for API code examples to help you get started.

This example based on WebRTC code: https://webrtc.github.io/samples/src/content/devices/input-output/ https://github.com/webrtc/samples/tree/gh-pages/src/content/devices/input-output

A basic Electron application needs just these files:

• package.json - Points to the app's main file and lists its details and dependencies.
• main.js - Starts the app and creates a browser window to render HTML. This is the app's main process.
• index.html - A web page to render. This is the app's renderer process.

You can learn more about each of these components within the Quick Start Guide.
