I did 4 months ago, I loved it at first but when I tried to use it in a more complex use case during hackathon I ended up hitting some weird compile bugs with it and decided to go back to webpack. Maybe ill try it again once it matures a bit more.
Yep, its seems like theres a lot of directions the web can go in and I like the more experimental concepts shown in your videos. Looking forward to see how lensVR will turn out.
Hey Billy, I think I chatted with you over Skype a little while ago :). From what I've seen your team's teams effort seem the most inline with what I'm wanting but there are a couple things I haven't yet seen from lensVR:
- Desktop support (I have a Vive and I think you mentioned its only available for gearVR right now)
- Multitasking, all the images on your twitter seem to only have one site at once
- Fallback to 2D site (If Im in a webVR version of reddit and I click an unknown url I need to be able to multitask on
that site even if it doesn't have 3D support)
Since I have yet to find a vendor heading towards support for these things, currently Im using a fork of firefox where I just hacked out a bunch of security settings. Right now it lets me load iframes and pull content from them into webVR but it was just a quick way to get it working as I'd prefer if each separate tab could draw to its own layer and then be composed with other tabs (Im hoping this is part of WebXR standard but it sounds like it wont be there for a long time).
If you have anything else to share with me or if you have any additional questions for me, Id be happy to answer. I would LOVE to get a browser I could target so I can stop worrying about building my own browser and focus on my web apps.
Dang, sorry to hear that. I've seen those projects in the past but the problem I have with those is that they seem to only support web 2D multitasking using browser APIs. Here's hoping you reconsider in the future. Thanks
This project looks awesome. Do you know if you have any plans to push some wild/experimental webVR features into this? I am desperately looking for a browser that will support:
- webVR multitasking (>1 tab rendering to display a time)
- tab content sharing
- obtaining textures from html elements to project into VR
so I can watch twitch in WebVR while browsing Reddit in VR. So far I have a sketchy fork of Firefox that somewhat works but I'd love for something more stable to recommend to people. What I want is described in more detail here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1JzxKqir57c4RnpHhpH8nED8C...
Looks cool, I started making an electron based desktop environment like this a while ago but didn't see it through https://github.com/TrevorDev/niftyOS
I have a vive and what I don't understand is why I need to use chromium or nightly firefox to view this content when it is out on official mobile builds. Does anyone know why this hasn't made it into official desktop builds yet?
Possibly the physics of the world is based on change in time between rendering. If the rendering time is slightly longer/shorter the collision calculations may cause this non-deterministic action.
Typescript has became my favorite language. The option of having types when you need them is great and the addition of async/await make working with promises a lot nicer. Ever since I've been able to use experimental features and get es6 support with typescript I've never looked back. The only thing lacking now is the tooling. The atom-typescript plugin is the best I've found but I would love to see better integration with other editors. Can't wait to see what comes to typescript next!
I really enjoy typescript and I really enjoy the cutting edge features. Atom editor is the only editor that has the typescript plugin that works with the latest features of typescript. I hate the performance of atom but it is worth the tooling.
I am not a fan of DoorDash's business techniques. DoorDash sent a flyer to my house false advertising a coupon code. I spent half an hour creating an order only to realize that the coupon they sent me was different from what the flyer said. When I called to complain they acknowledged their error but said they wouldn't do anything and that I should just place an order anyways.

2 months ago trying to use amazon fresh told me I needed to be a prime member to use it. I signed up for a year of prime for the sole purpose of using amazon fresh and I was very happy. Now 2 months in they are forcing me to pay another 200$. This may be my fault for not reading my prime subscription terms but I feel tricked into buying prime. I will be trying out instacart in the future.
