Hypertextual-Reality: VR on the Web

Diego González @diekus Virtual Reality has seen the launch of 5 platforms from different vendors over the past year and a half. They feature diverse capabilities that range from gaze selection to 360º motion tracking. This has led to separate closed environments that require different development technologies, which fragment and isolate the already divided niche. Developer portal registrations, app store accounts and increasingly complicated workflows can hurt VR, and having a way of developing immersive experiences on an open technology stack is highly beneficial. One option is implementing VR on the web, coupling the open approach of the web technologies with immersive experiences of virtual reality.

The Right Choice: When the Web is the right answer and why?

Salvador de la Puente , Mozilla @salvadelapuente Going native or building for Web is a perennial hot topic in the mobile development space, but treating these alternatives as irreconcilable is naïve. Nowadays, each option offers distinct opportunities and advantages. With the advent of new web technologies such as Service Workers, Push API and Web Manifest, let’s reconsider the Web as a competitive platform.
