Kassandra is a new macOS application written entirely with Swift using SceneKit and native Apple APIs for the Nreal Air. We wrote this app out of love for the quality of the Nreal Air experience, and frankly, out of a strong sense that the potential of this device has been slipping away without full official support for ALL Macs, and without the ability to leverage Apple's amazing frameworks. Read the full announcement on our website: https://hackingathome.com/2023/04/13/kassandra-ar-for-all-macs-now-in-public-beta/ Kassandra is now in public beta, and all are invited to test: https://testflight.apple.com/join/zXjQrPpl If you like this project, please buying me a coffee: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/hackingathome

Last week I embarked on a mission: to port an (unofficial) open-source Windows driver to macOS so Swift developers can build their own experiences for the device. It was extremely challenging, but with a bit of persistence, I was able to successfully do that. What you were looking at here is an app running on an Intel Mac that was written with Swift and uses SceneKit. The first public release is on GitHub, read the instructions carefully and proceed at your own risk— but it’s pretty cool : https://github.com/GigabiteLabs/AirAPI_Mac-Dist/releases Please let me know if you have any issues, especially if you run an M series Mac. I don’t have one, so it’s untested on M-Series, but I am pretty sure you can get it running with Rosetta. Comments and feedback welcome, I’ll share more this week (Swift Package for macOS) and happy hacking!
