Developer Simon B. Støvring is out with not one but two native apps for Apple Vision Pro on launch day. First, there’s a native Apple Vision Pro app for Runestone Text Editor, Simon’s excellent plain text editor with a host of different features.
Second, if you want to use Vision Pro to immerse yourself or those around you in confetti, Simon has released the very fun and whimsical Spatial Sprinkles.
