CHAPTER NAVIGATION LIST IN DESCRIPTION!

On November 14 - 16th, 2023, Meta and AWS partnered together to create our first WebXR Hackathon at the Amazon offices in Seattle, Washington. This three day even brought together more than 30 participants across four teams that competed to build innovative and compelling experiences through WebXR on the Meta Quest 3 headsets.

Levering open source tools, web technologies, and powered by AWS services, the teams created a wide array of experiences from games to wellness to contemplative. By leveraging the web, these kinds of applications can be brought to virtually any platform, from mobile to VR headsets, creating an opportunity to engage people anywhere, anytime.

A special thanks to our partner, Meta, for their awesome collaboration, to the attendees that leaned in and inspired us, and our AWS colleagues that saw the need for such an event and made it happen.
