What happened to the old docs?

The docs at https://docs.viromedia.com/docs have gone inactive since mid January 2022. We aren't sure what happened to them, but they are now inactive. These docs are the current ones, and suggested edits are welcome!

Starter-kit npm install fails on Windows

Some users are seeing an error message like this:

Text

npm ERR! code EBADPLATFORM
npm ERR! notsup Unsupported platform for fsevents@2.3.2: wanted {"os":"darwin","arch":"any"} (current: {"os":"win32","arch":"x64"})
npm ERR! notsup Valid OS:    darwin
npm ERR! notsup Valid Arch:  any
npm ERR! notsup Actual OS:   win32
npm ERR! notsup Actual Arch: x64

To fix this, you can either remove fsevents from package.json or use npm install -f.

Does this work with iOS simulators or Android Emulators?

No. The AR capabilities and libraries used are not officially supported.

Does this work with Expo?

Yes! We have a guide: Integrating with Expo. This is a new feature, so any suggestions/edits are welcome.
