@Leodanenkov yes and no! The JS events are there. Touch, pinch, hover and there states are all supported but we don’t have complex combo gestures yet.
I’ve had ideas for using your desk as a multi-touch surface as well. But there’s some accessibility stuff to consider for all of this.
Controllers and improved hand tracking support is next on my task list, so we’ll be noodling on a lot of it in the coming weeks 🍜
Yeah there’s an obvious need for responsive spatial apps. The ecosystem is far too early to expect devs to build and maintain a version of their app that serves maybe 100 people. It should be one codebase that works and takes full advantage of all platforms.
Not to shamelessly plug but here’s a demo of what I’m talking about using #mrjs, the spatial app engine we’re building.
@lobau @hanbollar Finally got css layout support working! here's the same #mrjs demo running on desktop, mobile, iPad, and of course MR.
PR: https://github.com/Volumetrics-io/mrjs/pull/177
#webxr #spatialweb #volumetrics #webdev #arvr #mixedreality #spatialcomputing #xr
first attempt at momentum scrolling @lobau
First internal hackathon with @lobau & @hanbollar in the office :volumetrics: :webxr:
A heads up. I renamed the repo from `MR.js` to `mrjs`. Doesn't seem to require changing anything locally and appears to automatically reroute.
@lobau & @hanbollar I’m working on updating the components API to utilize `data-*` attributes, it's a draft PR at the moment but it will imply some user facing API changes. more info on the PR.
TLDR: add `data-` in front of `position` & `rotation` and any components such as `comp-animation`
We’re working on integrating more and more CSS support for 2D UI in #mrjs, our webXR UI Library. What are some CSS properties/features you find absolutely essential?
#dailyAsync 11/13
Friday:
- dug into finding the simplest local https solutions to support local webxr dev for #mrjs
Today:
- wrap onboarding docs
- knock out some GitHub issues
Blockers:
None
Created an issue to address obviously lacking documentation. dropping everything to work on it now. @lobau please jump in and add anything you're confused by.
@hanbollar love all of this. I really wanna migrate a lot of technical discussion and tracking onto github for #mrjs as well as the platform as we get to building that.
I will shamelessly rely on you to jump in and help figure it out, as a lot has changed during my brief stint in the closed source world.
Hey I wanna make it into the office for the milestone discussion so let’s have a virtual stand up so I can focus on driving.
Yesterday:
- focused on layout system refactor for CSS integration #mrjs
- did some admin work in gusto
Today:
- milestone requirements #platform
- setup desk
- finish layout PR
blocking:
- Bay Area traffic
Today’s been an exciting day for #mrjs!
@lobau & @jak have begun playing with it and filing issues as they find bugs in my very bug riddled code.
and now they were no longer drowning in admin work, I was able to implement scrolling & touch interactions, as well as UI clipping!
Here's a quick little demo of a mocked up landing page. bonus cheesy magic trick at the end.
