" summary

A demonstration that full virtual reality can run in the browser using only a phone, browser and JavaScript by using the WebVR standard and the A-Frame entity model. Shows a working interactive VR scene (a simple shooter) running in Chrome and Firefox on mobile and desktop, explains building reusable entity-component pieces instead of native SDKs, and argues this lowers entry cost so web apps can deploy VR without heavy engines or expensive headsets.
