Merseycode: Indira Knight - WebVR with A-Frame

Merseycode is a developer community project to bring the Liverpool developer community together in a series of tech talks: hosted by Digital Design Labs at Liverpool Science Park.  Each event will feature a tech talk, a Q&A with the speaker, and some time for the conversation to continue with food and drink after.  It is free to attend, and a great opportunity to learn and network for developers, hackers, coders, and designers.

Virtual Reality is an exciting new frontier in tech, it allows us to create unbounded worlds that people can walk around and interact with using their hands, to feel as if they were transported to another place. But as web developers what has that got to do with us?
This talk introduces web developers to VR with WebVR and A-Frame. WebVR is a Javascript API <A HREF="https://w3c.github.com/webvr/" TARGET="_blank" DATA-MSYS-CLICKTRACK="0" REL="nofollow noopener noreferrer"></A>or creating immersive 3D, Virtual Reality experiences in your browser. A-Frame, supported by the Mozilla foundation aims to make cross-platform VR simple and accessible to everyone.
