Six questions sit between a hands prototype and a hands-first VR game that people stick with. 👇 Is it a fit? Direct or indirect? How many gestures? How do you design for gaze? How do you forgive a miss? And how do you know it's ready? Watch all six now on Meta VR Academy 👉 bit.ly/3UlkcBy

NordVPN after 5 months on Meta Quest: ▪️ Lifetime users up roughly 10x ▪️ Monthly actives up ~3.5x in month one, then stayed within ~5% ▪️ Weekly activity held steady Read how @NordVPN turned user workarounds into an official launch 👉 bit.ly/4yG3ScU

"It's a human who has to put on the headset and see if your interaction is natural or not." That's @AshrayPai answering a question about agentic tools from Meta developer advocate @Dilmerv in episode 1 of Unscripted, our new series where a developer and a Meta developer advocate candidly take turns answering questions about building on Meta platforms. In this episode, Ashray and Dilmer shared how they use agentic tools to accelerate VR development. Scaffolding, SDK and package setup, debugging and test runs all go to Ashray's agents. Comfort and interaction quality stay with him, in the headset. He sums it up as anything that needs testing can go to an agent, and anything that requires judging needs a human. Watch episode 1 to hear how both of them use agentic tools in their day-to-day workflows and stay tuned for more episodes 👉 bit.ly/4k1BdLC #MetaVR #MetaVRGlasses #DevTools #AICoding

New in Immersive Web SDK 1.0: your coding agent can now run and test your app itself, either in the desktop emulator or on a Meta Quest connected to your computer. It finds the slowdowns your users would hit before they do. Start building with IWSDK 👉 bit.ly/4ztqsGh

Before you adapt your game for hands, decide whether it's a fit. Speed plus precision, thumbstick-style control, and simultaneous actions all raise the cost of the port. This lesson and others are now available for developers on Meta VR Academy 👉 bit.ly/4hYPdTW

Direct or indirect interaction? It's the first call you make in a hands-first VR game, and it decides how the whole experience feels. Pick wrong and your game is tiring to play, even when it technically works. Learn more with the “Building Your First Game for Hands” interactive course, now available for developers on Meta VR Academy 👉 bit.ly/4yEoqmN #MetaVR #MetaVRGlasses #MetaQuest #VR #VRDev

If you build for the web, you can build for Meta VR. With the Meta template for v0 by @vercel, describe an idea, deploy it, and open it on Meta Quest today. It's ready for Meta VR Glasses too, with gaze and hand input built in. See how it works 👉 bit.ly/4yf49n1

Desktop simulation can test behavior, but it can't measure frame time on a headset. With Immersive Web SDK version 1.0, an agent can play your app on device, profile it, fix any drop, and replay until it holds your frame rate target. 🧠 Point your agent here and start building 👉 bit.ly/4hWE6Mi

Agentic workflows for Meta VR speed up setup, implementation, testing and performance optimization. The Meta VR CLI gives coding agents like Muse Code current platform knowledge, and updated simulators are ready to test for Meta VR Glasses.

When you build for Meta VR Glasses, Interaction SDK makes eye gaze a right click, literally "Add Gaze Interaction." For extra support with design, our new Device Readiness Check flags field of view optimizations and input mapping fixes.

Eyes, hands and voice are how you interact, and VR Glasses ship without controllers. The Store will recommend hands-compatible content to those users out of the gate, so supporting hands in an existing title is a direct line to a new audience.

To bring more people into VR, we started with the form factor. Meta VR Glasses are about 100 grams with a familiar shape, a high resolution display, and intuitive input. Read our VR recap blog to see the design considerations for your build path 👉bit.ly/4ALhVjI

Hand tracking helped "Chess Club" feel more like physical chess. See how @OddersLab added hands and MR to a long-running Quest title, improving player sentiment and giving casual players a more natural way in. Check out the developer story 👉 bit.ly/4rdRYEN #VR #GameDev

Testing a VR idea used to mean committing a weekend to it. With Muse Code and Immersive Web SDK (IWSDK), a VR rhythm game came in at $1.75 in model usage and about four hours of agent runtime. Build with IWSDK 👉 bit.ly/3TqxDzL Try Muse Code 👉 bit.ly/4xSUZgE

"It renders" and "it behaves correctly" are not the same. When a grab fails, the cause is rarely obvious. Immersive Web SDK (IWSDK) lets the agent pause the runtime, advance a frame, and compare the state before and after. Get started with IWSDK 👉 bit.ly/4r3hkFp

When coding agents pull from outdated APIs, they can turn one prompt into a new debug loop. 😵‍💫 The Immersive Web SDK lets your coding agent check relevant documentation and examples in your project, so it builds on the current API. Try it today 👉 bit.ly/4yiRSyd

How much setup do you do before you even know a 3D or XR idea is worth it? With the Immersive Web SDK, you describe your experience, your agent builds the first pass of the scene in Three.js, and you refine it in Scene Composer. Try it now with Immersive Web SDK 👉 bit.ly/4zPMRyI

What happens when hand tracking is the spark, not the add-on? @holonautic built "Hand Physics Lab" around hands, physics, and player intent, growing it into a Meta Quest success story with 1.3M+ copies sold. Watch the developer story 👉 bit.ly/4caRedD #VR #MetaQuest

BIG NEWS 📢 Your AI agent can now see, navigate, and test your VR app inside Meta XR Simulator. Meta XR Operator is a model-agnostic OpenXR API layer that works with any MCP-compatible agent and requires no app code changes. Get started in 5 minutes 👉 bit.ly/3SgoIjW

🧵3/3 We built this sample experience this way. Assets stayed reusable, composition stayed structured, and the finished scene is still editable by hand. Start building: npm create @iwsdk@latest Read the documentation 👉 bit.ly/4i10btt

🧵2/3 That’s the agent's side. Humans and agents use different interfaces while working on the same IWSDK project. You work your side through a visual editor that features a live IWSDK-powered viewport, scene graph, inspector, transform gizmos, asset browser, and validation tab. Move a light, scale a model, flip back to Runtime and the change is there, right where you placed it.

Immersive Web SDK v0.5 introduces the Agentic Scene Composer. Coding agents can compose complete, complex IWSDK scenes, then make precise changes to one area without disrupting everything else. In the video, the agent redesigns a chair asset and recomposes only the firepit seating. The rest of the scene stays intact. 🧵
