The Big List of WebXR Creation Tools
-
The following is a list of just about every single thing you can use to create WebXR content that I'm aware of. I'll probably update this as time goes on, feel free to leave any suggestions of something you think should be on here.

I'll also use a second post here to keep track of prospective creation tools, aka any tool where there has been some discussion/planning to incorporate WebXR support.
Prospective WebXR Creation Tools
Name Type Issue? PR? Notes Armory Engine 1587 No Prior versions had WebVR support, but even that no longer works due to changes in related things used by the engine Bevy Engine 115 2319 Work has stalled, needs to be picked up again Unreal Engine Engine 41 No There is work being done by Wonder Interactive to offer a proprietary solution to WebGL and WebXR export with Unreal Engine 4/5. There are currently no open-source efforts of this nature with any visible progress Webaverse Engine 2813 3189 Previously had WebXR support, but became non-functional and is in the process of being made functional again X3DOM Framework 1046, 1068 1235 There is an existing WebVR implementation that needs to be updated. I am currently working on this. -
Mozilla Hubs and Spoke (their editor) might fit in this list.

@trevorflowers You know initially I was hesitant to add stuff like Hubs and Frame on here, but now that I've added the Cloud Platform category I think they might actually fit after all. Will add those along with some other things next time I update this.

Added Hubs/Spoke, FRAME, and VrLand
