Not quite yet.
Watercourse is still in development, so there is nothing here to install today. What is here instead is what it will ask of your machine, so you know now rather than at launch.
One app, three platforms
The studio itself is the same everywhere. Two things are not, and they are worth knowing before you plan around them.
macOS
- macOS 13 or later for system audio capture
- The only platform with the virtual camera
In development
Windows
- System audio capture supported
- No virtual camera
In development
Requirements, without the small print
macOS and Windows
One desktop app, the same studio on both.
System audio capture
Requires macOS 13 or later, or Windows.
Camera and microphone permissions
Requested on first use, by your operating system.
A phone as a camera needs only wifi
The app serves the page itself, so the phone shows a certificate warning once and never again.
The virtual camera is macOS only
It installs a camera extension macOS asks you to approve once, and the app has to be in your Applications folder.
Guests need a server you run
A small rendezvous service, and a TURN server for guests outside your network. It ships in the repository, and no audio or video passes through it.
