Julia Client

Julia is all about integrating OpenSimulator into the traditional web, making it possible to follow a http link on a webpage and entering a virtual world hosted by OpenSimulator.

The project consists of two sub projects:

Client
The client portion implements an easily consumable REST based web-service, enabling easy AJAX access to the functionality of the individual services provided by OpenSimulator, i.e. Grid, Inventory, Asset storage, e.g. as well as the regions hosted by the individual simulators.

Using the name client in this contexts is a bit counter intuitive. Seen from an external sites viewpoint, JuliaClient appears as a service, in the context of the this project the client refers to the fact that this services appears to the grid and simulator as a client.

The client resources implements the following resources.

Viewer
The viewer is WebGL based, and renders inside modern browsers, including tablets and mobile phones, without any preinstalled components. From the simulators perspective the Julia viewer appears as just another viewer.
