Supports tokenized session joining for secure access.
Offers helpers for managing audio, video, and screen sharing streams.
Includes delegate and event callback contracts for session monitoring.
Facilitates chat and auxiliary command implementation within video sessions.
Provides troubleshooting resources for common macOS-specific integration issues.
