I like you are having success here, and the key item "natural communication lines" which I very much agree with. We will always deliver conway's law. I am curious on 1) the size of your teams, and 2) your opinion on how this

Good question, still a "green" technology but I have had great successes with it for the past 4-5 years in production (ASM.JS before widespread WASM compatibility). "promising that we'll be able to build web apps in any

Looks fantastic, shouldn't be 'too difficult' to port to web via WebAssembly. There goes my weekend! Keep up the great work :)

Firstly great app, I enjoyed using this on my baby daughter crawling around the living room! Keep up the good work :) If you were to implement a camera picker, take a gander at: https://webrtc.github.io/samples/src/

Good question, I would say neither, this responsibility is for the browser and native apps you use which display web content (e.g. Chrome, Firefox, Facebook, etc). Not apple or the web app developer. At most OP should include https:/&

Used to live around the corner. Nice owner, good food and a great beer selection. I now [Ironically?] live in the states and miss that pub quite a lot.

This is good advice. I would also extend this and write out an FAQ / stackexchange for the next engineer at your company who has to go through the same learning curve.

Nice suggestion, we do this for certain deployments. Amazing what magic you can do in Janus, etc, :)

I do a significant amount of work with Hospitals and secure environments (Military, etc). TURN is needed 100% of the time. P2P traffic is not allowed. All IP addresses need to be known and kept static upfront for firewall whitelisting. This

There are too many non constructive negative comments. Not many web engineers understand how the dom really works, or how to make a library. I applaud this tech demo. Would I use this in production? No. But the author is not asking for that

When dealing with Health or Military systems installing or updating a native application could result in months of delays (e.g. quarterly OS image update cycles). However running within Chrome, Firefox, and other typical software preinstall

Thanks, much appreciated! I think WebAssembly is more used than it appears, just difficult to see/tell. A few years ago I actually tried integrating AR via WebAssembly with Amazon. We couldn't get the approval due to poor performa

I feel like I am looking in a mirror! Ten years ago I did the same but in Java and JOGL (before Apple banned OpenGL graphics within Java Applets embedded within a webpage). Was used for AR Watch try on within https://www.watchwar

An example I can give: I use WebAssembly for a few cross-platform plugins. E.g. An AR 3D rendering engine in C++ and OpenGL. With very little effort it is working in browser. No bespoke code, same business logic, etc. Saved a lot of time vs

I understand your point but I see this as a global B2B requirement. Most products I use and have built cover North America, Europe, Middle East and now Africa. Each country or region has its quirks. If you are GDPR compliant there is a good

yes. I am a data processor not a controller. If you store data tied to the user you still need a mechanism to retrieve / delete it. This is something I encountered. Even if it is in reality not an issue and by itself the data is meanin

Love this, OpenCV and all WebAssembly projects. I also use next-translate now and then so kudos for that! I have been putting AR in-browser when Java applets with JOGL was a thing! I've been nominated twice this year for the Webby awar

I like this, I see what they're doing and it looks promising. However It lacks a data request/GDPR takedown section which for me makes the project commercially useless. Most teams/products always look at compliance as the las

I lead a small team of developers (~12-14) and just hired 2 people without any formal qualifications for junior web roles. I will only do this for Web roles, not machine learning, etc, which does - imo - require a more learned academic mind
