Title

Playful webcam

Description

Take photos, record or stream video and audio: all these we can now be done with native browser capabilities and JS.

But, can we configure our camera the way we do it on smartphones? Zoom, maybe? Apply a mask like in Stories? Change the voice? Or, transform a video stream into ASCII?

I'll tell you how to work with the webcam in browsers: starting from scratch and apply the crazy stuff in the end.

My bio

I'm frontend developer at Uploadcare, I work on a widget for uploading files used by thousands of companies around the globe.

I live in Saint-Petersburg, Russia, where I'm also a founder and co-organizer of the SPB Frontend community.

My path in web dev started when JS was only used to make snowfall on pages. I like how web technologies and JS have evolved since.
