The P2P Session is the connection behind /p2p: one direct link between two people that hosts a call, file transfers and games all at the same time. It lives at an address of its own, and the console on that page is where every part of it is operated.
One Connection, Every Feature
The console has four sections — Call, Files, Games and Stats — and everything runs concurrently over the same connection: share your screen, send a file during the call, start a game without hanging up. Ending any one activity never drops the others. The console opens on activity too: an incoming file offer selects Files, and a game proposal selects Games.
Self-Controlled Media
Audio and video are self-controlled: each peer turns their own microphone and camera on or off independently, like a modern video call. File transfers and games still ask the other side to accept.
Ending it, and merely leaving
End Call stops the media and leaves the session standing for files, games and statistics. End P2P session, at the top of the console, ends the whole thing and asks first. Closing the browser tab is neither: the other side is told you dropped, and you have about half a minute to come back to the address before the session closes itself.
