It is our goal to enable developers to create content for the metaverse and easily link their product into the VRWeb network with a minimum of restrictions. The VRWeb system already provides a number of services and software to alleviate this process. But, before we get into those details, let’s first identify your goals. Would you like to 

– show a creative world which you want to share with friends or visitors? Content only or limited interactivity? Then World Builder is your best option. This app helps you to easily combine models, images and some interactivity into your worlds. This approach might be interesting for:

  • Real estate agents or museums to present walk-throughs 
  • Educational applications (get our EDU plugin) 
  • E-Sports participation and other live events 
  • Landing location (like landing page) with a portal to the world which could be displayed in a hub together with other vendor’s portals 
  • Etc. 

– program a simple game or interactive environment? Then get our VRWeb Toolkit which is based on Unity. For more information, see our VRWeb Toolkit User’s Guide and our VRWeb Toolkit Programmer’s Guide. The toolkit already contains all the code to handle 

  • Portals  
  • Tracking 
  • Authentication and payment 
  • Based on XR Toolkit, interactive elements, switching between 1st and 3rd person view or VR (headset) view 
  • Compatibility issues between platforms (currently OSX, Windows, Android, and more to come) 

– develop your app from the ground up or based on a different game engine, then you’ll need to implement our portal mechanism as specified in our VRML Specification
