The object of development in this work is the web interface for the switcher of video streams. The aim of this project is to develop a web interface that allows the user to interact with a remote switcher by sending commands to the server for performing the specified operations: obtaining the streams addresses from the user by the switcher, switching video streams between the preview and the program output. In addition, it is necessary to implement auxiliary functions - save and load of work sessions, control of the switcher operation with hot keys. The web interface is implemented on the basis of the Meteor.js framework using a number of third-party libraries, the most significant among them: simple-ssh, flowkey: hotkeys and bootstrap. In addition, the webRTC component is used for implementing streaming video playback on the web interface page. The result of the work is a web application that is a web interface for a video stream switcher. The web interface allows the user to control the switcher from the browser. With the help of the web interface, the user can send to the remote server the data necessary for the switcher operation, control signals switching on the outputs with the help of buttons, save and load work sessions.
