Introduction

Screen sharing means that users share the screen content with other users in the room in the form of video during a video call or interactive live broadcast. It supports sharing the entire screen and sharing a specified window. For example, in an education scenario, teachers need to show the PPT on the desktop to the students in the room to watch, so as to improve communication efficiency.

This function is provided as a plug-in. For details, please refer to zego-express-engine-electron-plugin-screen-capture . As a plug-in of zego-express-engine-electron , the combination of the two can realize the screen sharing function.
