How to create an app for Vision Pro

To create an app for Vision Pro, you can follow several steps and utilize various resources provided by Apple at WWDC. Here are some key points and sessions that can help you get started:

Understanding VisionOS: VisionOS is the operating system for Vision Pro, and it offers unique capabilities for spatial computing. You can start by recompiling your existing iOS or iPadOS apps to run on VisionOS and then extend them for spatial computing. This approach was highlighted in the Platforms State of the Union session.
Designing for VisionOS: When designing apps for Vision Pro, consider the spectrum of immersion and how to leverage native frameworks like ARKit and RealityKit. The session Design great visionOS apps provides insights into creating intentional and immersive experiences.
HealthKit Integration: If your app involves health data, you can integrate HealthKit into VisionOS. This allows you to create spatial health experiences and utilize the same data authorization configurations as iPadOS. More details can be found in the session Get started with HealthKit in visionOS.
Game Development: If you're bringing a game to VisionOS, you can start by running it as a compatible app and then progressively add features to increase immersion. The session Bring your iOS or iPadOS game to visionOS covers techniques for rendering and enhancing your game on VisionOS.
Spatial Web Optimization: For web-based experiences, you can optimize for the spatial web by using tools like WebInspector to inspect DOM content and CSS rules. The session Optimize for the spatial web provides guidance on inspecting and debugging web content in VisionOS.

By exploring these sessions and utilizing the VisionOS SDK, you can create compelling apps for Vision Pro that take full advantage of its spatial computing capabilities.
