title: Custom Chromecast sender API - possible?
body: <p>I'd like to examine the possibility of writing an unofficial Windows 8 (WinRT/Metro) sender API for Chromecast. The goal would be to allow Windows 8 Store apps roughly the same functionality of iOS / Android apps through the official sender API available for those platforms.</p>
  
  <p>I've noticed that, although the inner workings of the API haven't really been exposed yet, some of the source code for the Chromecast device is available, and there's an unofficial emulator for the device out on Github (<a href="https://github.com/dz0ny/leapcast">https://github.com/dz0ny/leapcast</a>).</p>
  
  <p>Is this possible, given how Chromecast devices seem to take commands directly from Google?</p>
