Install the extension

Gather & Join is a Chrome extension. It needs Chrome (or another Chromium-based browser that installs from the Chrome Web Store) and, for the call, a microphone. A camera is optional.

From the Chrome Web Store​

The listing is unlisted for now: install from the link the person hosting your server shares with you. Chrome keeps it updated automatically.

First-time setup​

  1. Click the extension's icon and open Connection & device setup.
  2. Press Allow microphone. Allow the camera too if you want to use it.
  3. Paste the connection address the host shared with you (it usually starts with wss://) and press Save address.

You only do this once, unless the host's address changes.

Building it yourself​

The repository builds the extension with one command; the README's Quick start has the details. Load the built folder unpacked from chrome://extensions with Developer mode on.
