Apple Vision Pro in UE5 needs time for stability but the god rays in headset were awesome.

Just released DicyaninThumbController - an open source Swift package for visionOS that lets you control objects using just your thumb.

It’s insanely smooth and takes minutes to integrate. Perfect for building immersive experiences where you need to control objects.

πŸš€ Polio’s Last Mile is now available on Apple Vision Pro!

I was hired by REM5 STUDIOS to lead the visionOS dev, but they didn’t just want to port the Meta Quest version. From the start, we wanted to create something that felt native to the Vision Pro.

✨ It's new samwho visual essay o'clock! ✨

Reservoir sampling is one of my favourite algorithms. It allows you to sample from a set without knowing the size of that set.

I try to assume no prior knowledge, and use no scary math notation. Just beautiful visuals.

Let me know what you think! ❀️

Hey everyone, would you do me a favor?

Can you help me spread the word about Step Into Vision? A few hundred visionOS developers find it super useful but I haven't broken out into the rest of the Apple Dev world.

Can you help put a spotlight on this project?

Huge huge fan of your blog Sam, your "The Birth and Death of a Running Program" and "Dude, where's my main?" nerd-sniped me in the best way possible when I first read them :D, fantastic work

I was wondering, are you using a theme for your blog or did you style everything yourself?
