Talk Title: Building realtime VR on the web
VR technology is going places ! But learning the tech stack for its implementation is still a challenge for many web developers. What if we could do some reverse engineering and build VR using just HTML with a chunk of JS !? Of course adding a realtime functionality with multi user capability to this recipe would only make it more delectable !

This talk will walk the audience through WebVR and what makes it different from regular VR. Further, it will introduce the A-Frame web framework that makes building VR apps terribly easy. All this along with the realtime backend provided by deepstream is more than enough to be able to easily build multi-user VR in just a few minutes.
