About this Presentation
The WebAPI is providing developers with the ability to interact with device hardware and resources that have only been available to native platform stacks. Through the WebAPI web developers now have access to battery levels, screen orientation, cameras, background services, the file system, network status, radios, and much more. We will step through each of the APIs within the WebAPI showing code, demos, and browser support.
The objective of this presentation is to give participants an idea of the many new things that can be accomplished via the web.
