visionOS Fundamentals - Watch before you build for Vision Pro

People believe the general computer-using public will put goggles on their faces to use a PC, tablet, or phone. It's never going to happen. Everyone I know in tech says the same thing: it never will happen. So what is this tiny niche market some people believe is not minor or niche?

Great video! Thank you 😇

Do you think this will catch on, or stay incredible niche? My thinking is it will eventually have moderate usage, maybe like the Apple Watch but not as common because of the price tag (assuming the price goes down to like $1500 or something eventually).

How quickly can someone with coding experience become proficient enough to build AR/XR apps in IoS for Vision pro?

I am very looking forward to a whole new sub-ecosystem with this devise and OS. I agree with you Sean, even it is expensive now but it has very good chance to prevail in the next decade, very well reminds me of how people were screaming on the expensive first Iphone when it came out yet it brought to the world unlimited possibility and massive productivity boost.

can anyhone reccommend any assets in psd or blender, beyond what on the apples page (figma, sketch) ?

Thanks!

hey Sean, I'd like to start with visionOS development.
What would be the best mac specs ?

I have a Mid 2018 MacBook Pro. Will it be enough to develop an application for Vision Pro?

Can we build app with react-native for apple vision ?

Nice time to be a developer!! As a physician I wish we get few apps dedicated to healthcare like anatomy and disease conditons

I would like ironman hologram on Apple vision pro

Would love to know more about how you develop a 3d icon for this. I see it's just planar vectors and VisionOS does the rest? At first I thought you would be able to do an actual 3d object and use that as an icon, but I guess not?

While $3500 is expensive, it could be a great way to get into this space early. No doubt companies will be looking for Xcode developers who can make AppleVision apps for their businesses.

i wanna build some cool apps for visionOS but its sad that apple force there product even for development.. i cant run x code on windows so ya i rather build for other brands

Hi Lenin

Wonder what is the EMF Radiation coming out of these devices..
Anyone?

Awwsome, dood.

thanks for the great video. can i start building apps for vision pro from a windows device?

Sean Allen is one of the best I learned from him a lot ❤

VisionOS is temping me to come back to the Apple ecosystem. It feels like something that will take off once it’s all said and done. To be in on it early feels like a win win.

It looks like there’s a boost in SwiftUI and VisionOS seems like a greenfield gold rush.

price is out of the beget of many clients in other word "building apps for few clients is not paying off" but the bright side is this will give us time to get in depth do you thing regular consumer will get use to it ? is this going to be widely spared what do you think ?

Nice summary!

Do people think Apple will allow eye tracking for games? Because I could see some interesting scenarios where, for example, you play as an RPG thief class and you have to be careful not to let your eyes linger too long on an NPC's pocket purse, or else you'd be detected and they'd become wary of your intentions.

Awesome introductory video!

Not a developer but I still enjoyed this overview. I haven't been this excited about a new platform in forever. I'm optimistic that developers are going to take on this challenge to move into VisionOS (or at least develop for it in parallel). There's going to be a lot of pressure on the 1,000,000 early adopters to spend as much money as possible and keep Devs going until more users show up.

I wonder how long UIKit will be supported? Another couple of years? 5 years? It’s going to go away at some point, that’s for sure!

Apart from learning apple's development tools like Swiftui,xcode i highly recommend learning blender & Godot game engine. You will thank me afterr 5 years

Just made it through the second module in your course! You really made this journey of learning swiftUI fun. I look forward to developing concepts for VisionOS. Appreciate your work, sean!

Is there any information yet about how many windows/volumes can coexist in the shared space and how long do they persist? In theory they’re all visible even if the user doesn’t interact with it for hours so they should stay open, but it feels more like iOS where they’re likely gonna cull memory aggressively. Thoughts?

Thanks for the sneak peek. I figured Apple would make the on-ramp as painless for current Apple devs as possible. Let’s just hope that Simulator is reliable; I still think $3500 is a pretty big barrier (even though HoloLens 2 is the same price) and if devs can’t test with confidence in the Simulator most will not bother.

Welcome back Sean! Been a while. Good to see you putting together a tutorial for this. We're getting started on moving forward with development for this platform! :)

Awaiting for visions tutorial😊

SEAN ALLEN DON'T MISS

thanks again for this breakdown king

Was wondering when you would talk about VisionOS. I’m interested how to setup the simulation. Currently taking your SwiftUI course on Teachable.

I started learning and interesting into software engineering because Swift and SwiftUI .

Thanks

Whatupp Sean, just wanna say hi and let you know that I've been watching your videos because im learning IOS development at a very high peace so i can switch from frontend to IOS development. I also made a twitter account and gave you a follow, and I'd like to know if there will be the Monthly Hayppy Hour.

By the way thanks for the videos, you have a good form explaining concepts. -Peace

Yes, let's go! I'm excited for what's coming with visionOS & Vision Pro!

I'm excited for the next generation of video players

I'd say good luck to Flutterers and React nativers, hehe.

Hey Sean, it has been a while since the last communication, I appreciate your dedication to everything Swift and SwiftUI, great explanation simple and straight to the bone, as usual, keep up the great work brother man;-)

Thanks Sean!

🇺🇿🇺🇿👍👍

Im so ready for this!!

Great explained brother. Keep it up.

Desperate for a visionOS tutorial series, just building upon existing knowledge of SwiftUI! I only recently started learning Swift/SwiftUI, with no prior programming experience, and I definitely want to become a developer in this space. Thanks for uploading!

Nice video! Thanks!
