Need List of Related or Useful APIs

jpmedley opened this issue · comments

There seems to be no natural place for this question, but @cwilso suggested I put it here.

I need a list of web APIs that are useful in some way in immersive web experiences. As part of smoothing the implementation path for early adopters, I want to verify that MDN pages are present, complete, accurate, and contain updated compatibility data.

Here's what I have so far:

  • Gamepad API
  • PannerNode
  • WebGL

If you know of others please respond to this thread.

  • WebAudio (Not just PannerNode)
  • Geolocation
  • Vibration
  • WebSockets
  • WebRTC
  • TCP & UDP Sockets
  • Web Speech
  • Service Workers
  • Performance
  • WebBluetooth (possibly)
  • Page Visibility
  • Web Crypto
  • Heard some rumblings about an API for wifi p2p, this would be extremely useful for colocated experiences.

The APIs coming out of the Web Payments WG seem directly relevant since one of the main reasons creative teams publish native XR apps into app stores is because there's a clear path to getting paid.

  • WebGPU
