Google Chrome Experiments is a unique gallery dedicated to showcasing innovative and playful experiments created by Web Designers using only a hybrid of Javascript, HTML5 & Canvas 3D.
Officially launched by Google just over a year ago, it started off a simple collection of new and fun ways of using Javascript, created by some of the industry’s web developers specifically optimised for Chrome.
Twelve months on, Chrome Experiments is now a vibrant platform for developers around the world to show off their creations, wizardry and the limitless possibilities of modern web standards and ditching the need for clunky plugins.
We’ve hand-picked some of the finest Google Chrome experiments that we’ve enjoyed, which each individually impressed us for their innovative nature and sheer uniqueness.
*Some experiments require the latest versions of Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox to work as intended*
