To get started with Vision Pro, you can follow these steps based on the information provided from various WWDC sessions:

  1. Device Management:

    • Vision Pro uses the same familiar device management and infrastructure as iPhone and iPad. You can manage Vision Pro using device enrollment or user enrollment by signing in with a managed Apple account. For more details, you can refer to the session What’s new in device management.
  2. Web Development:

    • To inspect and debug web content on Vision Pro, ensure your Mac and Vision Pro are on the same network. Enable Web Inspector on Vision Pro and connect it to your Mac via Safari's Develop menu. This setup allows you to inspect DOM content, CSS rules, and use the JavaScript console. For a detailed guide, see the session Optimize for the spatial web.
  3. HealthKit Integration:

    • Vision Pro supports HealthKit, allowing you to create immersive health experiences. You can enter an immersive space to reflect on activities and save data to HealthKit. For more information, check out the session Get started with HealthKit in visionOS.
  4. Game Development:

    • If you have an existing iOS or iPadOS game, you can start by running it as a compatible app on VisionOS. You can progressively add features to increase immersion and leverage Vision Pro's capabilities. For a step-by-step guide, refer to the session Bring your iOS or iPadOS game to visionOS.
  5. Enterprise APIs:

    • Vision Pro offers a set of enterprise APIs to build apps for various enterprise environments, enhancing collaboration, communication, and guided work activities. For more details, see the session Introducing enterprise APIs for visionOS.
  6. General VisionOS Development:

    • Apple provides samples and documentation to help you get started with spatial computing on VisionOS. You can recompile existing iOS and iPadOS apps to run on VisionOS and then extend them for spatial computing. For an overview, watch the Platforms State of the Union.
