PipeWire is a server and user space API to deal with multimedia pipelines

Practically speaking, it's a replacement for both PulseAudio and JACK, and provides multimedia plumbing for app container systems like Flatpak.

And screen sharing/recording. It's for both video and audio.

Neat! I didn't know how the space evolved. Thanks for letting me know.
