Common Q&A

  Don’t have a Windows machine?    

Don’t worry, there are plenty of options to get the most out of HTML5 WebCamp!  Labs are only the last couple hours of the day, and you are also welcome to engage with speakers, proctors, and fellow attendees who will be happy to give you demos.  Nevertheless, please consider using a virtual machine, downloading and installing a trial version of Windows 7, or practice some pair programming with another attendee.

When should I arrive?

Our sessions will be starting promptly at 8:45 AM, so be sure to arrive 30 minutes early for check-in and set up.

See you all there!
