# WebXR

The [WebXR Device API](https://www.w3.org/TR/webxr/) provides access
to virtual reality and augmented reality devices in compatible web browsers.
It is a product of the [Immersive Web Community Group](https://github.com/immersive-web),
which has contributors from Google, Microsoft, Mozilla, and others. The "X" in
XR stands for anything in the spectrum of immersive experiences.

![The immersive web is a spectrum from complete reality to
completely immersive, with various levels in between.](https://developers.google.com/static/ar/develop/webxr/images/immersive-spectrum.png)

WebXR's Augmented Reality module allows for virtual content to be aligned with
the real-world environment before being displayed to users.
WebXR uses ARCore to power AR experiences on the Google Chrome browser on
Android devices.
