The post demonstrates it by porting MoQ Boy — a Game Boy emulator demo previously browser-only — into a native iOS app with audio/video playback, tunable latency, and bidirectional control publishing. The author explains why native integration matters over WebView approaches: direct access to native rendering, audio, gestures, telemetry, and custom media pipelines. MoQ is positioned as a middle ground between WebRTC (real-time calls) and HLS (large-scale playback), useful when apps need low-latency, application-shaped media with relay/CDN-style distribution. The library is open source on GitHub. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
