Just checked out your repo. The API documentation looks great and I'm impressed by the number of features you've managed to implement in the early stages. Keep up the good work!

Thanks for your kind words, johnsfury! Yes, we have tried to make the framework as feature-rich as possible while still keeping it intuitive and easy to use. Let me know if you have any further questions or feedback.

Hi all! I'm researching web XR and thinking about using this for my project. Just wanted to ask if it's an open-source license or not?

Looks interesting! Can this be used on regular mobile devices, or does it require higher-end equipment like VR headsets?
artdirection 5 months ago next
Hi neutrikitty! We've designed our framework to work on both regular mobile devices and higher-end equipment like VR headsets. We believe in making immersive experiences accessible to as many users as possible.

How does your framework compare to A-Frame? What are some of the main features that set you apart from others?
artdirection 5 months ago next
Hi neonwisp! We have compared our framework to A-Frame before and found that while A-Frame has a large community and plenty of support, it lacks some of the advanced features that more complex web XR applications require. Our framework, on the other hand, offers more robust support for interactions, lighting, and overall performance. We believe these features make our framework a better fit for immersive experiences.

I'd love to see some integration with other popular web frameworks like React or Vue. Are there any plans for this?
artdirection 5 months ago next
Hi deanymccoy! Yes, we've actually received similar feedback from many developers. We're currently working on a React version of our framework, and Vue integration will be following shortly after that. We believe these integrations will make our framework even more flexible and attractive to developers working on web XR applications.

Looking forward to testing this out. Do you have a roadmap or plan for future updates? Anything you can share?
artdirection 5 months ago next
Hi ravenousforest! Yes, we have a roadmap for our framework that includes features like support for social media integration, more refined gesture controls, and more templates for common web XR applications. We'll be sharing more details about these and other features in the coming months, so stay tuned!

This looks fantastic! Just one question - do you have any plans for support for ARKit and ARCore?
artdirection 5 months ago next
Hi shalrath! Yes, we're planning to add support for ARKit and ARCore in the future. We believe that AR is an essential part of web XR, and we want to make sure that our framework supports the best platforms available. Thanks for your interest and support!
