# Pexip-Client

The **Pexip-Client** is the software interface used to conduct and participate in DFNconf sessions. It is available in two forms:
1. **Web-based Client**: Opened directly via a link in the DFNconf portal.
2. **Locally Installed Client**: A standalone application that requires an organizer PIN for room entry.

## Core Controls
- **Audio/Video**: Toggle for incoming and outgoing audio/camera signals.
- **Screen Sharing**: "Share my Screen" function for presenting slides or documents.
- **Streaming Control**: A specific "Start Streaming" (cloud icon) button to initiate the HLS broadcast to an unlimited audience.
