Multiple browsers are shipping with the API, and tools, frameworks and file formats have emerged to support a growing community of developers. Join us for a casual evening of tech talks with the Mozilla VR team that's making virtual reality a reality on the web. This event will start with a brief intro into our 2017 Mozilla tech road map and then discuss A-Frame:A-Frame (https://aframe.io) (http://i.imgur.com/2ZY51dZ.jpg) is a web framework for building VR experiences with HTML and Entity-Component (ECS). It was created by the Mozilla VR team to make 3D and WebVR content creation easier, faster, and more accessible. A-Frame makes WebVR simple by being just HTML, but brings along the ECS pattern from the game industry and adapts it to the DOM. ECS development centers around reusable, composable, and sharable modules that we mix and match on game objects.The Mozilla team will give a brief introduction how easy and powerful it is to develop A-Frame, putting a spotlight on the blazing growth of the ecosystem, and showing off a few of the hundreds of community demos.CSS Grid and Layout: Creating seamless user experience on the webIn the early years of the web, there were limits on where you could put content on a web page. Now, with CSS properties powering dynamic layouts in browsers, a renaissance in layout design patterns is emerging.

Have you heard of WebAssembly? It’s fast. It’s being called “the future of the web”. It provides a way to run code written in multiple languages on the web at near native speed, with client apps running on the web that previously couldn’t have done so. And what's even better is that it is being developed as a web standard via the W3C WebAssembly Community Group with active participation from all major browser vendors. But what makes it fast and great for the web?
