About this event
This hands-on workshop takes you from zero to a working augmented-reality experience running in a standard web browser — no headset or app-store account required. Working in a small group, you will: - set up a WebXR project and get a camera feed rendering on your own device - place, anchor and interact with 3D content in the real world - handle lighting, occlusion and hit-testing so objects sit convincingly in a scene - publish your project to a link you can share the same day You write real code throughout. By the end of the session you will have a project of your own and a clear picture of how to keep building after you leave.
Eligibility & audience
For adults (18+) who are comfortable with basic JavaScript and HTML. You do not need prior 3D, graphics or AR experience. Bring a laptop and a phone with a modern browser.

No. Everything in this workshop runs in a normal web browser on a laptop and a phone.
What should I bring?
A laptop you can install software on, a phone with a recent browser, and a charger. We provide the rest.
Is this suitable for complete beginners?
It suits people who can already read and write simple JavaScript. If you have built a basic web page before, you will be able to follow along.
