About me...

Iker Jamardo @judax

•I run engineering @ Ludei.•Passionate about software architecture and a C/C++ lover (refurbished to JavaScript).•Former University Professor and Researcher.•Designed and implemented the core of Ludei’s cross-platform technology.

What is Ludei?

The Platform Components

The CAAT JavaScript Game Engine

The Ludei HTML5 Extensions

The CocoonJS Virtual Machine

The Ludei Mobile Cloud

The CAAT Game Engine

JavaScript Game Engine•Provides dozens of re-usable code snippets•Accelerates developer cycles•Eliminates having to “recreate the wheel”•Supports Canvas, WebGL and CSS rendering

Why a new VM?

Web technologies (and thus HTML5) are great.

Native apps (and markets!) are great.

Let’s combine the best of both worlds!

Why is Ludei’s VM so performant?

• Ludei uses it’s own JavaScript Virtual Machine and rendering technology to accelerate the canvas.

• Ludei’s JSVM is not a general purpose browser but a specialized environment to accelerate the canvas.

• Ludei has full control over the OS/hardware (native-like control) but it is still 100% HTML5 standard compliant.
