We will learn advanced topics of handling HTTP requests, serving web pages directly from in-world objects, and leveraging MOAP to display web content on a prim surface.
This will open up a myriad of possibilities for creators, from interactive displays and dynamic in-world advertising to complex web-based applications that integrate seamlessly with Second Life.


Discover how to connect Second Life scripts with Google’s suite of tools!
This class focuses on solving a common challenge in LSL: the limited ability to store and manage data inworld. By integrating with Google Docs and Apps Script, you can break past those restrictions and expand your scripting potential.
We will learn how to:
* Access and update Google Spreadsheets from LSL
* Use Google Apps Script to process and return data to your scripts
* Generate Google Slides as an alternative method of presenting or delivering information back to users
* Access external web functionalities that LSL cannot reach on its own


Ideal for creators looking to build powerful tools, dashboards, or systems that interact with data beyond the grid.

About me

Hi, I'm Suzanna, a teacher of scripting in-world, and a programmer in real life.


Classes

I'm excited to announce the launch of three new scripting class series designed to expand your skills and creativity in Second Life! Whether you're interested in integrating with external tools or diving into the future of scripting with SLua, there's something here for you.
