We’re excited to share that ReactVision Studio Alpha 1 is live and we’ve begun onboarding a small group of testers. For the past couple of months we’ve been heads-down building a tool we believe will make AR & VR app creation dramatically faster and more accessible.
What is ReactVision Studio?
ReactVision Studio is a visual editor that sits on top of our open-source renderer, ViroReact. It gives creators a no-code, drag-and-drop way to compose spatial scenes, while developers keep full power and control in React Native + TypeScript.
Our broader mission is simple:
Make spatial development accessible to everyone. Build visually with Studio; no code required to get started.
Empower developers to go deep. When you need precision, pop the hood and extend everything in React Native using ViroReact.
Create once, run everywhere (natively). Studio projects render natively via ViroReact across iOS and Android, with visionOS in early preview.
Best-in-class tooling. Built-in AI assists with asset and scene creation, and Studio Go lets you test safely on real devices before you ship.
Open at the core. ViroReact remains open-source; Studio is how we deliver industry-leading tooling on top.
In short: design visually in Studio → deploy natively with ViroReact. No “one-canvas-fits-all” compromises—your scenes are rendered with each platform’s native capabilities.
How can I get access?
Alpha 1 is a closed test with a small cohort. Keeping the group tight lets us build real relationships with early users and turn their feedback into rapid product improvements.
If you’re excited about building once and running natively across platforms, we’d love to hear from you.
We expect Alpha 2 to open to more testers at the start of October.
What’s next?
With Alpha 1 in the wild, our near-term focus is to:
- Refine the core editing experience based on real-world feedback.
- Release Studio Go, our safe, pre-production testing app for any ViroReact-supported device—so you can validate tracking, performance, and interactions using the same native renderer you’ll ship to production.
- Prepare Alpha 2 with broader access and incremental improvements informed by Alpha 1.
A personal note
Today feels like day 0 for Studio. After an intense build phase, the real journey starts now—getting it into people’s hands and learning fast. We have big (some might say ambitious) goals for Studio and a long road ahead, but we wouldn’t be doing this if we didn’t believe deeply in what we’re building. Early feedback has been encouraging and points to a clear path forward. Thanks for being here at the start.
