AR/VR resources that got me to where I am today.

Date:

The takeaways from these resources helped me grow immensely as a designer and thinker in the space of Virtual and Augmented Reality. These creatives have generously shared their methods, findings, and ventures with the public, and I have slowly curated these over time into categories for later reference.

I hope you find this content just as valuable for your journey as it was for mine!
