NCompass Live: Pretty Sweet Tech - Watch Me Build a Virtual World Using A Frame

Recorded on December 23, 2019

New special monthly episodes of NCompass Live! Join the NLC’s Technology Innovation Librarian, Amanda Sweet, as she guides us through the world of library-related Pretty Sweet Tech.

Sometimes it helps to see someone else do it. I’ve described this process a bunch of times, now you can watch me do it, live and in person! That’s right. Things might get a little messy.

Luckily, you will have the chance to follow along if you so choose. The tools are all free, and all you need is a bit of background with how HTML tags work. A bit of CSS never hurt anyone, but HTML is the important part at this stage. If you don’t have that background, feel free to watch anyway. It’s easy and fun to learn how to build a mini virtual world.

The Tools:

A-Frame: To learn what it’s all about
Glitch: To test our code
Coolers: To build a color scheme

That’s it. Not too bad at all. It’s time to see VR get made.
