Mediasoup requires SSL even in localhost?

406 Views Asked by At

I'm developing a project using mediasoup, in all examples server is running under ssl, even in localhost is this required? I guess certificate is for remote peers can use media resourses, but browsers allow consume media resourses in http://localhost
