Browsertech NYC #2 & the Browsertech Index

Browsertech Digest

Hey folks! This is issue #5 of the browsertech digest.

The Browsertech Index

Between operating Drifting in Space, running Browsertech events, and writing this newsletter, I have a lot of exposure to people building ambitious apps that run in the browser.

In the early days, I kept a mental list of products to keep track of, but it quickly outgrew my brain and I had to start making notes.

It occurred to me that readers of this newsletter might also benefit from my list, so I’d like to introduce the Browsertech Index: a list of the products that I think of as pushing the limits of what’s possible in the browser.

Browsertech NYC #2

We’ve finally gotten around to organizing another Browsertech event in NYC! The event will be Wednesday, December 7th, at 6:30 in SoHo. Details and RSVP are here.

I’m excited to announce that we’ll have Yining Shi from Runway as a speaker. I’ll also be giving a talk myself on Plane, and we hope to have some GPU streaming ready to demo as well.

Other stuff

Last week, I wrote about Mighty’s shutdown. Here’s a good retrospective from a Mighty engineer on the bigger mission Mighty was going after and why it didn’t work out.

Until next time,

Paul
