Canvatorium is a long-term side project where I can explore Spatial Computing UI/UX. It’s a place where I can test ideas and build small components for my other projects, many of which I can’t talk about. Developing and learning in public is my favorite way to improve as a developer and Canvatorium is my way of doing that. I use this project as a place to document and share what I’m learning and building. ![can-intro-card-scaled](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex024/uploads/babylonjs/original/3X/6/1/616f01aa7ea3893465e8b50e028a26f7f3d8f321.jpeg) I created a landing page for the project here: [vrhermit.com/canvatorium](https://vrhermit.com/canvatorium/) ### A few notes - **Labs** are all about exploring concepts and ideas for spatial computing, VR, AR, MR, etc. I publish all labs on my website when they are done. - **Benches** are 3D scenes that I use to test ideas or learn my way around Babylon JS. I don’t often publish benches, but you can find them all on the [dev site](https://radical-canvatorium.vercel.app/benches). - Look for the `` button on the overlay on a lab or bench to view the code on GitHub ### Follow the project There are a few ways to follow along. - I post frequent updates on [X](https://twitter.com/vrhermit) and [Threads](https://www.threads.net/@vrhermit) using the handle @vrhermit - All published labs end up in the [RSS feed](https://vrhermit.com/feed/) on my site - All code is available at Radical Canvatorium on [GitHub](https://github.com/radicalappdev/radical-canvatorium) ### Open to feedback and ideas If you have any feedback about a lab or even if you have an idea that you would like me to test, just reply here or anywhere you find me online. I have around 200 lab ideas on my list, but I’m always happy to add to that. Meta-question for the core team: Is Canvatorium suitable for the Community Demos page? ---

Very cool project, I definitely want to steal from this the way that you made these info panes! They are very aesthetic and functional. ---

@vrhermit this look really cool! What’s your twitter username? We’ll throw some attention your way from the Babylon account! ---

Thank you! I’m on X and Threads (and most places) @vrhermit. Is Canvatorium suitable for the Community Demos page? When I clicked the button to submit it, I was directed to the **Demos and projects** section of the forum. BTW, do you know if it is possible to change my handle on the forum from @vrhermit to @vrhermit? I ---
