HTML5 Multiplayer Game Development

We are excited to introduce our javascript SDK for AppWarp. This will allow developers to quickly build engaging real-time multiplayer HTML5 games and apps. Our javascript SDK uses websocket technology for fast asynchronous communication with other clients through the cloud. This is better as it does away with the inconvenient AJAX polling paradigm and doesn’t require any browser plugin to be installed. Read more benefits about websockets here. In a nutshell, it means your network communication layer is lightweight and fast.
