Building virtual worlds with web technologies
We will explore the landscape of virtual reality on the web, look at where it started and where it’s heading and then we’ll dive into how to create a multi-user interactive experience available on all platforms. For this we’ll use Mozilla’s A-Frame library, which makes it easy and fun to get into WebXR. We will have a look at how to compose scenes with HTML-like syntax from a range of components and how to modify them in the in-browser editor.
