JavaScript runs everywhere, so how about throwing it at Apple’s first extended reality device? I’d like to take you through a journey of how our small team brought React developer experience to Apple Vision Pro, what makes spatial apps different, how we ported visionOS’ specific quirks to React Native, and how does React help (or not) with spatial apps.
