Developing with Spatial SDK

• Project directory structure with scenes/, assets/, and source organization
• Modular package system for lightweight, focused spatial apps
• Dual-activity architecture separating the 3D environment from UI logic
• Spatial Editor workflow with asset pipeline automation
• ECS implementation with runtime component modification examples
• Dynamic scene loading and composition management

• Spatial SDK architecture: Learn how Spatial SDK works with Android apps and how your app can access Quest headset features.
• Entity-Component-System (ECS) pattern: Learn a simple way to organize your app’s code using objects, data, and actions.
• Components: Add data to your objects, like position, size, or color. Components hold information that your app needs.
• Systems: Build systems that operate on specific components with logic.

• Meta Android Studio Plugin: Get started quickly with ready-made project templates and tools to help build and test your app.
• Spatial Editor: Build 3D environments by dragging and dropping objects where you want them. No coding required for basic layouts.
• Data model inspector: Look inside your running app to see what entities exist and what components they contain.
• Hot reload: See your code changes instantly on your headset without restarting your app or losing your place.
• Input forwarding: Use your computer keyboard and mouse to test your app on the headset while you’re developing.

• Immersive scenes: Create 3D worlds where users can walk around and interact with objects.
• Panels: Take your Android UIs and place them in 3D space where users can interact with them.
• Input handling: Detect when users press controller buttons, use their hands, or look at objects to interact with your app.
• Objects and assets: Add 3D models to your app and let users move, rotate, and change them.
• Standard audio: Play sounds and music in your app.

• Physics: Make objects fall, bounce, and crash into each other just like real objects.
• Spatial audio: Make sounds come from specific locations in 3D space, getting louder when you get closer.
• Mixed Reality Utility Kit: Scan the user’s room and place virtual objects on their real furniture and walls.
• Passthrough camera API: Use the headset’s cameras to see the real world and add digital content on top of it.
