I'm actually working on VR environment that is fully self-modifying. Currently building code editor and hot-swapping environment. It uses Lua and LOVR engine as a host.
It is a step away from a classic concept of engine/lib/framework, the stable blackbox with API you call into. It's more like code environment you can examine, extend and reload instantaneously, with some built-in safeguards for reverting code errors. I'll make a ShowHN when I get to something substantial.
- malux85 6y agoKeep going this sounds so cool! Would pay for this
- zubairq 6y agoSuper, I would love to see this as we already in the early stages of building something similar but ours is pretty crappy UI. Making it slick is the hard part
- malux85 6y agoSlick is a moving target susceptible to hedonistic adaption - crappy UI but functional is better than non-existent, I’d say release as soon as you can ...
- zubairq 6y agoYeah we have released already, and actually got front page of Hacker News for 2 days, so got a lot of great feedback. You can check it out here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=21734845 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=21734845
- SonOfLilit 6y agoGetting strong Smalltalk vibes :-)
- jmiskovic 6y agoI just ran into actual Smalltalk-in-VR project called PharoVRIDE. I wish I had time and skills to recreate Smalltalk's VM images. I still haven't thought out how persistence would work.
- eightysixfour 6y agoDo you have an email list to notify people when it is available/in alpha?
- jmiskovic 6y agoNo, that's a nice idea. For now keep an eye on the repo https://github.com/jmiskovic/aquadeck https://github.com/jmiskovic/aquadeck
