“OMG, this Polish freak will talk about web gaming again. WHYY?” “C’mon dude, we all know that it’s possible to make a game in web technologies that run on mobile phone, fridge, printer, gaming console and etc. JUST STAHP!” “AGAIN? JS games are soooo 2011! “If any of the above was you first thought, I’m sorry to disappoint you. During this talk I’ll present my journey from JavaScript to real board games. The games you use to play with your friends on rainy days 30 years ago. You would probably ask how the hell you can write board version of Chess or Monopoly using JavaScript? Everything will be explained during JSDay this year, see you there :).

Sound Synthesis in the Browser

admin — Fri, 20 Mar 2015 22:13:07 +0000

The Web Audio API is incredibly simple and fun to play with. But you need some understanding of sound synthesis in order to really have fun with it.In this talk we will go over the basic theory of sound synthesis, learn what oscillators, LFOs and FM synthesis is.Once we will have developed some understanding about the theory, we will see how easy it is to implement all of this in JavaScript.

FireFox OS for Dummies

admin — Fri, 20 Mar 2015 22:10:14 +0000

Mozilla’s FireFox OS is the next up and coming operating system for smartphones ?ldquo; its ultra-low hardware requirements allow it to be used to create ultra-low-end handsets for developing markets. ZTE sold 100k units of the Open, and plans a significantly higher amount of devices for the successor.However, developing for FFOS is a bit weird as there is no real framework involved. Tamoggemon Holding k.s. has ported a few of its applications to the new operating system ?ldquo; this talk would show developers how to create FireFox OS applications efficiently and which pitfalls should best be avoided.

Talking and listening to web pages

admin — Fri, 20 Mar 2015 22:03:10 +0000

As web developers, our job is to build nice, fast, and reliable websites, web apps, or web services. But our role isn’t limited to this. We have to build these products not only for our ideal users but for a range of people as wide as possible. Today’s browsers help us in achieving this goal providing APIs created with this scope in mind. One of these APIs is the Web Speech API that provides speech input and text-to-speech output features in a web browser.In this talk you’ll learn what the Web Speech API is and how it can drastically improve the way users, especially those with disabilities, perform tasks in your web pages.

In this workshop you will get your hands onto all that’s needed to level up your web applications with the power of the third dimension.You will learn the basics to get an interactive 3D world on screen with Three.js, how to load 3D models from various formats and tips and tricks to gain the best performance.We will also cover shader programming with GLSL in WebGL.

JavaScript and Internet Controlled Hardware Prototyping

admin — Fri, 20 Mar 2015 21:46:47 +0000

The electronics maker movement has led a massive shift in how people are re-engineering the world around them through rapid hardware prototyping. With the rise of inexpensive, wifi and bluetooth low energy enabled electronics, this hardware revolution is internet and mobile controlled, all through simple bridges to build the electronics intelligence in familiar web languages.In this session, we will play with Arduino microcontrollers and JavaScript to take a first dive into the world of internet controlled electronics, exploring topics such as:- Setting up an Arduino to be controlled through web APIs- Using JavaScript language bridges on the Arduino- The future of web controlled hardware prototyping
