The official Khronos OpenXR SDK containing pre-generated OpenXR headers and source code for building the OpenXR loader. It provides the standard API surface for developing cross-platform AR and VR (XR) applications against OpenXR-compliant runtimes.
Use cases
- build a VR application that runs on multiple headsets
- integrate OpenXR support into a game engine
- compile the OpenXR loader for Windows or Linux
- get OpenXR headers for C/C++ development
- develop an AR app against the OpenXR standard
- link an XR application to an OpenXR runtime via the loader
- support multiple VR devices with one codebase
When to choose
- you are developing C/C++ applications or engine integrations targeting OpenXR runtimes
- you need the official, pre-generated OpenXR headers and loader without extra dependencies
- you want cross-platform VR/AR support via the Khronos open standard
When to avoid
- you need to modify the loader or API layers - use the OpenXR-SDK-Source repository instead
- you are building in a higher-level engine (e.g. Godot, Unity, Unreal) that already ships OpenXR integration
- you target a proprietary headset SDK exclusively and do not need OpenXR
