Nice project and I always like playing with WebRTC but there is something that has me a little concerned .

> Transfers are now directly from the uploader to the downloader's browser (WebRTC without WebTorrent) with faster handshakes.

Maybe I'm wrong, but there is a signaling server in the middle somewhere along the chain here no ? unless it's just the same as PeerJS in which you first need the clients ID, but connection can be flaky.

From the source I can see it's using PeerJS but react is throwing me off a little bit. It's not clear to me what `useContext(WebRTCContext)` is..
