What is DevCamp?
DevCamp is a VRChat-like nostr client for visionOS.
In a nutshell, it allows people to gather in a digital space built on an open protocol to interact and share content and experiences as if they were face-to-face.

The Why
When this project first began, online participants had to exchange contact information and share a FaceTime link if they wanted to experience the same level of immersion as meeting in person.
Because of this, DevCamp was created to serve as VisionDevCamp’s online gathering space and started as an experimental project to explore new ways of collaboration.
Although it is not an official app, it has been community-driven, developed as open source, and adopts nostr.
Together with the global developer community, we aim to foster an open and decentralized developer ecosystem.
What's the differences from VRChat?
The main differences from VRChat are as follows:
- It adopts the open protocol called nostr, designed for building decentralized, censorship-resistant social media.
- It provides near face-to-face communication through photorealistic avatars.
- It has a simple design optimized for communication and collaboration, keeping entertainment elements to a minimum.
