Raphael is correct. We started the Demo Studio in response to Chrome Experiments.

Back then, Chrome Experiment authors were building experiments that only worked in Chrome. This led some to believe that Chrome was an especially powerful browser, when in reality many of the experiments could have worked in any modern browser if they had been written correctly.

We launched the Demo Studio to address that problem. We called for demos that showcased the power of the Web, not just the power of Firefox. We wanted to show the world that the modern Web, not Chrome, was the platform that made amazing things possible. Three years later I'm happy to say we accomplished our goal. The Demo Studio has more demos than Chrome Experiments and we don't hear people referring to the Chrome platform in particular as being revolutionary.
