A Browser API, or Application Programming Interface, is a set of commands, functions, protocols, and objects that allow developers to create web-based applications that can interact with the browser. It helps developers create interactive websites, as well as access and manipulate data stored in the browser. Some of the most common APIs used by JavaScript developers include DOM (Document Object Model), Fetch, WebGL (Graphics Library) and WebRTC (Real Time Communication).

Pushing the Limits of Video Encoding in Browsers With WebCodecs
High quality video encoding in browsers have traditionally been slow, low-quality and did not allow much customisation. This is because browsers never had a native way to encode videos leveraging hardware acceleration. In this talk, I’ll be going over the secrets of creating high-quality videos in-browsers efficiently with the power of WebCodecs and WebAssembly. From video containers to muxing, audio and beyond, this talk will give you everything you need to render your videos in browsers today!
