I built a standalone tool to manage BlendShapes for USDZ files. No Unity required! Perfect for native #visionOS & RealityKit workflow.

I would love if #Xcode added a way to turn search within a file into multiline selection, maybe the options in the drop down are Find / Replace / Select
Then I can manipulate all occurrences of a particular code in the same file at once. This would solve tasks I fall back to vi to accomplish.

I added a new open source app, LaserPointer, to ARKitVision (link in comments). This has a simple setup for tracking the Logitech Muse stylus, and uses the primary button to change laser beam colors.

Just did a demo of the Apple Vision Pro with M5. It was already an amazing device that I’ve been fortunate to work with daily since last February, and this is a really great upgrade. Text is crisper, load times are near instant, and the moon surface in Jupiter has really sharp details. 🥽

Apple Vision Pro Developer Strap (2nd Generation) just arrived.
Curiously, it has some more more metal near the connector on both sides, and is just a bit visible on the right.
