It’s Time to Share What We’ve Been Working On!
As developers, we all face our share of challenges, especially when dealing with the headaches of spatial development. Complex setups, tangled wires, and the constant juggle of IP addresses and ports can slow down even the most experienced among us.
Introducing… volu.dev!
What is Volu.dev?
Volu.dev is more than just a development tool; it’s a revolutionary platform designed to streamline the way you build and debug mixed-reality web applications.
It’s tailor-made for developers looking to harness the full potential of spatial computing without the traditional headaches.
The Status Quo
Traditionally, developing in this space has involved cumbersome processes, including physical USB connections, constant management of IP addresses, and the need for multiple codebases to cater to different native platforms. This complexity not only slows down development but also narrows the scope of creativity.
Our Breakthrough Solution
Volu.dev eliminates these barriers, enabling you to preview and debug your mixed-reality web apps on any headset with just a single click. Key features include:
- Console Log: Easy access to debug output right on your headset.
- WebGL Stats Monitor: Real-time performance stats at your fingertips.
- Scene Inspector: Dive deep into your scene elements and properties effortlessly.
- P2P Connection: A secure peer-to-peer connection that syncs your project between Visual Studio Code and your headset, all in real time and completely local-first, ensuring your code remains under your control.
What does this mean?
Say goodbye to the traditional hassles that have long plagued WebXR development:
- Seamless Integration: No more wrestling with USB cables or complex network setups. Simply click to connect, launch app.volu.dev on your headset browser, and dive straight into development.
- Live Development and Testing: Preview and debug your app directly in your headset or on your desktop. Experience real-time debugging and testing across both platforms without any loss of data or functionality.
With volu.dev, every aspect of your development process is optimized to be as smooth and efficient as possible, freeing you up to focus on what truly matters—creating spectacular mixed-reality experiences.
Where Can I Get It?
Volu.dev is available right now! You can download the extension directly from the Visual Studio Code marketplace.
Future Plans, Stay Tuned!
The web is and will continue to be a vibrant platform for developing applications that can run universally in Mixed-Reality. It’s the future of spatial computing.
We are committed to continually enhancing the platform, adding more features, and supporting developers in creating apps that were once deemed impossible. Stay tuned for more updates and exciting developments from our team!
