Update to work with latest spec? #183

Closed stalgiag closed 4 years ago

stalgiag commented 4 years ago

Hi! Are there any plans to update this to work with the final WebXR spec API (the version implemented in Chrome 79>)?

This would mean that one could use this XRViewer to view the official WebXR samples. This level of support would make it much easier to develop cross-platform WebXR projects.

Let me know if I can be helpful in any way, or if there are current plans under development in a different repo. Thanks!

Hi @stalgiag, we are working on a replacement. We haven't quite shipped it. It will be based on the Firefox for iOS app, instead of this app. The javascript API is in the develop branch of https://github.com/MozillaReality/webxr-ios-js

That branch currently implements the base webxr api with a variety of extensions that are non-standard. As additional webxr features are standardized, we will conform to them.

Google is shipping a range of not-yet-standardized features in Chrome, beyond the basic spec, we will likely be waiting until those features are closer to standardization before reworking the API.

Amazing thanks for the info and quick response @blairmacintyre. I will check out the linked repo.

I will close this to avoid crowding the issues here. Thanks again!
