ROB DODSON: Hey, everybody.
What's up?
It's Rob Dodson, and welcome
back to day two of the Chrome
Dev Summit.
I am joined here on the floor
by webmaster extraordinaire Paul
Kinlan.
Paul is also a member of the
Chrome Developer Relations
team.
Paul, you-- and yes,
you're our webmaster,
I know-- and you are
going to give a talk
on what is next for the web.
So can you give us a preview
of some of the content
that you're going to be
covering in your talk?
PAUL KINLAN: Yeah,
so the one I'm
talking about for
What's New and What's
Next in the web is
why the web is good,
why we still think it's a
platform that you should deploy
on, and why you should
be building for the web
continuously and
continuously deploying to it.
So one of the things
that we're talking about
is obviously the why, but also
some of the brand-new things
are coming to the web.
There's a whole bunch
of brand-new APIs
that are landing
inside the browser.
Not every browser
at the same time.
Yeah, it's a bit of
a problem sometimes.
But they really enhanced the
capabilities of the platform.
And I'm trying to talk about
why we should be still pushing
on the features on the platform
and actually just trying
to build great experiences.
And then I look at some new
APIs, which is a little bit
show biz as well.
ROB DODSON: So I want to know.
What are some of the new APIs
that are a little bit show biz?
PAUL KINLAN: Oh, some of the
new APIs that are show biz.
So one of my
favorite-- actually,
it's not really show biz--
but I really like it.
So there's the canvas capture
and media streaming APIs.
So one example I've got is
recording from a WebGL canvas
and then downloading it.
We've never been able to
do that on the web before.
You could do that,
upload it to YouTube.
Really great little API.
And then obviously things
like WebVR as well,
which is going to land soon.
ROB DODSON: So for folks who
are interested in learning more
about that stuff, what's
one place or resource
where they could go to
dig into that stuff?
PAUL KINLAN: So
developers.google.com/web,
that's our home, right.
That's where we try
and tell developers
how to build for the web,
how to build best-- following
best practices as well.
And then if you go to
/updates on that as well,
then you get all the new things
that are landed on the platform
as well.
So if you want to know what's
good, why-- what's good?--
if you also want what's coming
on the platform as well,
the update section as
well for that site.
ROB DODSON: Right on, awesome.
Paul, thank you so much
for being with us today.
PAUL KINLAN: Can we do that--
ROB DODSON: We'll do it again.
We'll do that again.
Oh yeah, feels good.
Thank you all so
much for watching.
And be sure to
stay tuned for more
from the second day
of Chrome Dev Summit.
See ya.
