Features

  • Javascript / HTML integration
    The user interface controls on the left hand side of the page are implemented in Javascript and HTML. These communicate with the Hypercosm applet in order to function together. The benefit of being able to implement content this way is that the HTML / Javascript can be implemented and maintained seperately from the Hypercosm content.
