Is there a plan to make an Oculus Quest Release

(+2)

I initially planned it, but the biggest problem I encountered was essentially file handling, as this works on local files and folders.

Apps like Bigscreen and the likes use streaming from a PC over wireless, and I did consider using this sort of QR code style transfer of video streaming link (as the Quest has a camera, so it can have a QR reader as well), but I encountered more and more tech overhead the more I dug into it and it would have drastically changed the scope of this project.
