גם אם שוב אעצום את עיני
השמש תזרח
כולם יחיו כאן טוב גם בלעדי

גם אם לא הייתי בכלל הבוקר יבוא
העולם גדול מדי עלי העולם יפה מדי אולי

אני אחלום לנצח

@itztabegarehet את המילה? זה גם סוג של דג, אז אולי כן...

Been quietly building Uptimizr and it's finally in public beta. Analytics, but for 3D scenes — heatmaps, sessions & replays for your worlds.
Supports @babylonjs (and lite!), @threejs, @playcanvas, @aframevr

@haagch42 My quotation was more about the Linux XR ecosystem. Are there working XR runtime for Linux? Just out of curiosity.
I 100% agree with you on web standards.

[Raanan Weber @RaananW]

As long as #WebXR is not supported on all mobile devices (and/or their OS) it will stay a niche-standard that can't be used in production. Shame.

[Raanan Weber @RaananW]

@haagch42 I totally agree.

I really don't mean that as a sarcastic question (really), but apart from development (which is a good enough reason), is there any other use for WebXR on Linux?

[Raanan Weber @RaananW]

@mrmaxm You keep on saying niche applications. Let's say they are.

The capabilities are available. It's all a matter of exposing them. Or allowing other browsers to do so. But they are blocking it. I wonder why.

Let the problem be the UX. Let the users choose.

[Raanan Weber @RaananW]

@mrmaxm The company that refuses to implement WebXR is a UX expert. The defined a lot of "standards" that we all use. We can get there, but need everyone on board.
And I totally agree on the wearables. Handheld devices will be gone soon enough, but they can still be used already for AR

[Raanan Weber @RaananW]

@mrmaxm We can agree to disagree here 😊
I think the reason AR is not used is exactly because of the fact that you need an app for it. Your day to day mobile usage will benefit a lot from web-enabled AR sessions. But it will never be thing as long as the status quo is kept.

[Raanan Weber @RaananW]

@mrmaxm Immersive AR sessions are, IMO, the biggest selling point for WebXR. Amazing capabilities and never ending use cases. And the best thing - you already have a supported device in your hand (and soon you will wear it). Except for iOS users.
VR is awesome, and has solvable problems

[Raanan Weber @RaananW]

@babylonjs @ertuctn A new link was posted

[Raanan Weber @RaananW]

Another amazing release of @babylonjs. I will always be honored to be a part of this amazing team.

From #WebXR perspective we have updated support for depth sensing! Try it on your quest 3.0 or android device.

Now we have to start planning new features for 9.0!

@cx20 @limes2018 The flow graph was recently merged and is available to use
https://t.co/ioaGbi80wZ
However, the power of the flow graph will be truly unlocked when we release an editor for it. No time line at the moment.

[Raanan Weber @RaananW]

Sharing a bright spot from today:
9 months ago I started my #crossfit journey because I simply had to start moving more.
Today I participated in my first #crossfitopen2025 (day 1) and so far I'm really happy with my result 😊
Stay active!

[Babylon.js @babylonjs]

We're excited to announce a brand new video series for beginners by @thomlucc. Walk through the entire process of building an AR portal to another world! It starts today with Part 1!
