description: Browser-side JavaScript API (also called the External API) that embeds a Jitsi Meet conference
  into any web page through an iframe. Exposes the JitsiMeetExternalAPI constructor with commands (executeCommand),
  functions (getParticipantsInfo, isVideoMuted, etc.), and an event surface (videoConferenceJoined, participantJoined,
  audioMuteStatusChanged, raise hand, breakout rooms) for controlling the meeting from the host page.
  The same library powers the embed experience on meet.jit.si, self-hosted deployments, and JaaS.
