I Made a visionOS App in the Vision Pro, Here’s What I Learned
The Vision Pro is weird y’all. While much of the tooling is the same as for iOS and Apple’s other platforms there’s a lot that’s different when it comes to building great experiences for this new kind of device. I've been hands on with the Vision Pro at work and have been building an app for it on the weekends. We’ll be taking a look at what it’s like to work as a developer inside of the Vision Pro. What the development exerince is like for the Vision Pro. Then some of the kinds of thigns you should be thinking about when creating a VisionOS app.
About the presenter
James is an iOS developer, guess now visionOS developer too, working at Mantel Group in Melbourne. James is a self-confessed tech junkie and largely got into programming as an excuse to be able to play with tech all day. The Vision Pro is out and he wasn’t going to miss the chance to work with the latest bit of tech. James has been working with Mantel Group to show off what the Vision Pro can do for different clients. And in his spare time building an app for the headset. When not sitting at, or strapped to a computer James is off in a 4WDing to take landscape photos or painting minis for a D&D game.
