For the most part the changes are taking the "static propTypes" declaration off
of components and declaring them as Flow types. Sometimes to support flow some
method signatures had to be added. There are some exceptions in which more had
to be done to tame the beast:
- AbstractVideoTrack: put in additional truthy checks for videoTrack.
- Video: add truthy checks for the _videoElement ref.
- shouldRenderVideoTrack function: Some component could pass null for the
videoTrack argument and Flow wanted that called out explicitly.
- DisplayName: Add a truthy check for the input ref before acting on it.
- NumbersList: Move array checks inline for Flow to comprehend array methods
could be called. Add type checks in the Object.entries loop as the value is
assumed to be a mixed type by Flow.
- AbstractToolbarButton: add additional truthy check for passed in type.
Unfortunately, as the Jitsi Meet development evolved the routing mechanism
became more complex and thre logic ended up spread across multiple parts of the
codebase, which made it hard to follow and extend.
This change aims to fix that by rewriting the routing logic and centralizing it
in (pretty much) a single place, with no implicit inter-dependencies.
In order to arrive there, however, some extra changes were needed, which were
not caught early enough and are thus part of this change:
- JitsiMeetJS initialization is now synchronous: there is nothing async about
it, and the only async requirement (Temasys support) was lifted. See [0].
- WebRTC support can be detected early: building on top of the above, WebRTC
support can now be detected immediately, so take advantage of this to simplify
how we handle unsupported browsers. See [0].
The new router takes decissions based on the Redux state at the time of
invocation. A route can be represented by either a component or a URl reference,
with the latter taking precedence. On mobile, obviously, there is no concept of
URL reference so routing is based solely on components.

- Move the existing components for the static dial in page into
a separate folder for easier reuse.
- Reuse those components for displaying dial-on numbers on the
mobile page for unsupported browsers.
- Modify those components to support having tel protocol
links on the dial-in numbers.
- Have DialInSummary, formerly DialInInfoPage, respect a
passed in className prop for easier styling differences.
The error raised by JitsiMeetJS.init() is already in the state of
features/base/lib-jitsi-meet so it's not a good design to store the same
error in the state of features/unsupported-browser.
The desired behavior of the button 'Start a conference' / 'Join the
conversation' is to launch the mobile app if installed; otherwise, do
nothing i.e. continue to display UnsupportedMobileBrowser.
Anyway, we may change our minds about allowing the user to continue in a
supported mobile browser so preserve the source code that enables that
but give it more appropriate naming.
