Learn Babylon.js to Create Your Own 3D Metaverse Environments

Dolby.io recently sponsored a workshop at CascadiaJS, the Northwest’s premier JavaScript developer conference. That workshop, Learn BabylonJS to Create Your Own 3D Metaverse Environments was quite a popular workshop at the conference. The workshop sold-out early, and was standing room only. And for good reasons. there is a lot of interest in developing for the Metaverse.

What was all the excitement about BabylonJS and the Metaverse?

There's been a lot of buzz about building Metaverse experiences in Unreal Engine and Unity, and yes Dolby.io has you covered with plugins for both platforms. The new excitement for developers is the possibility of building Metaverse experiences using JavaScript. Our workshop focus at CascadiaJS 2022 was to help developers get started with a fully-featured JavaScript game engine called Babylon.js, then level up the experience with Real-Time Streaming and Spatial Audio.

Here's what developers had to say about the content we presented and their experience at the Dolby.io BabylonJS Metaverse workshop.

No More Fear of Missing Out!

No worries if you could not attend in-person.
You can now learn how to get started with BabylonJS with our self paced workshop available at DolbyIO Samples on our GitHub.
You'll learn the basics of 3D development, plus learn how to bring real-time streaming into your own Metaverse experiences. We've developed a full repo of code samples and tutorials to help you get started with BabylonJS and Dolby.io technologies.
