Can the Sender-Receiver communication in a cast sender application be implemented in pure javascript and run inside browser?

Is the API only available for android and iOS?

    This was closed as 'opinion based' but it's not an opinion-type question, it's 'is this possible' rather than 'is it a good idea' or such. And the answer is: it's possible (at least in 2020, probably not in 2013) ref https://developers.google.com/cast/docs/chrome_sender – MichielB May 14 '20 at 11:29

No, you need to be able to read from the UDP port used to execute the M-SEARCH query in your multicast domain. No way as far as I know. This might change if Google decides to utilize another discovery protocol in addition to DIAL.

  • Using the Chrome browser, you can create a Sender application using only JavaScript: https://developers.google.com/cast/docs/chrome_sender – MichielB May 14 '20 at 11:27
