StereoKit Updates!

Hello everyone!

It's so great to see so many cool people signed up for the hack, and I really enjoyed chatting with so many of you at the Altspace event last week! :) If you missed that event, don't worry too much, we'll have a couple more events that you can drop into before the hack is over!

**Upcoming Dates**
(11/9) - I'll be speaking about StereoKit in-person at AWE tomorrow. If you're attending, please drop by and say hello! ( https://www.awexr.com/usa-2021/agenda/2527-stereokit-a-code-first-approach-to-mixed-reality-d )

**StereoKit Updates**
I wanted to highlight a few things we've added to StereoKit in the recent week or two. The first big one you may have already been benefiting from was the v0.3.4 update that released on 10/30. This update added skeletal animation, and a good chunk of new documentation content! We really wanted to get that update out to all of you before the hack started, and we were very happy to get it out with some time to spare :) The full changelog can be found over here ( https://github.com/maluoi/StereoKit/releases/tag/v0.3.4 ) if you're interested in the specifics!

On Saturday (11/6), in response to some of your questions, we added a new guide for using the simulator! You can read that document over here ( https://stereokit.net/Pages/Guides/Using-The-Simulator.html ). Please don't hesitate to ask for additional documentation on subjects you're finding tricky, I'm very much in a writing mood this month!

Later this week we'll be pushing out a preview build for v0.3.5 with a couple features you all have requested, including: switching hands within the simulator, creating a sound from an array of audio samples, and a UIMove option for keeping your UI windows stationary! Similarly, feel free to ask for features that you're missing, or highlight bugs you run into, we'll get in as many small features and quality of life improvements as we can!

Good luck with the hack everyone! We'd love to see your progress here in the discussions, please don't feel shy about sharing what you're working on :)

Thanks!
