Last week Apple launched the official visionOS Design Kit for Figma and further bolstered its promise to help creators get up to speed with developing for the new mixed-reality headset.

Apple Vision Pro is due for release in 2024, starting at $3,499 / £3,499, and with this early release of visionOS Apple is gambling that apps already on its App Store will work with the new AR / VR headset. It's a good plan, and Apple has already name-dropped key first- and third-party apps during the headset's reveal at WWDC showcase.
