Understanding Apollo

Chris Brichford, the engineer on the Apollo team doing the actual HTML integration, has his MAX2006 Understanding Apollo presentation available at GoogleVideo.

In it he talks about:

  • how Apollo will render HTML
  • the rendering engine Apollo is using – WebKit – and why they chose it
  • what can be done to the HTML
  • How JavaScript and ActionScript will work together
  • lots more

I’m very excited to get my hands on Apollo. The possibilities that it will open up are practically limitless. I’m thinking about building a web browser that mimics a sort of photo carousel as my first project.
