    <h1>Multi Window Communication</h1>
    <p>
      You are running OpenFin Runtime version:
      <span id="openfin-version"></span>
    </p>
    <p>
      This example shows four different ways of pushing out messages from a
      single source to multiple windows.
    </p>
    <ul>
      <li>Broadcast Channel using a Shared WebWorker</li>
      <li>Broadcast Channel from the Publisher Page</li>
      <li>
        OpenFin IAB Message Bus from the Publisher Page (only within OpenFin)
      </li>
      <li>
        OpenFin Channel API from the Publisher Page (only within OpenFin)
      </li>
    </ul>
    <p>
      You may want to have one window/worker acting as the connection to a
      websocket and then have that push out data across multiple windows.
    </p>
    <p>
      This hasn't been built as an example of best practice. The goal is to give
      you a way of defining what type of message you want to share, how you want
      to share that message and if there is a threshold in milliseconds you do
      not want a message to exceed.
    </p>
    <p>
      You can run this example in the browser (enable popups):
    </p>
    <p>
      <a href="./views/publisher.html" target="_blank">Launch in the Browser</a>
    </p>
    <p>
      Or you can run this example in OpenFin:
    </p>
      <p>
        <openfin-link
          show-in-fin="true"
          href="fin://localhost:3000/config/app.platform.fin.json"
          >Launch Local OpenFin Platform Application</openfin-link
        >
      </p>
      <p>
        <openfin-link
          show-in-fin="true"
          href="fin://openfin.github.io/openfin-multi-window-communication/config/gh.app.platform.fin.json"
          >Launch Github.io OpenFin Platform Application</openfin-link
        >
      </p>
