You only need to be a programmer if you want to build WebM support into a software application or contribute improvements to the VP8 or Vorbis source code. To play WebM files, all you need is a supported browser or media player. To create WebM content you can use the software listed on our Tools page. Also, YouTube is supporting WebM as part of its HTML5 experiment.
