New SqueakJS release 1.1 lets you save Etoys projects (finally!) 🎉 If you're curious about how Squeak use the Garbage Collector to find "image segments" in Squeak, this is the code: github.com/codefrau/SqueakJS… Also fixes Scratch project saving and has other minor improvements.

Got a PoC for integrating @CroquetIO with @WebXREngine in less than 2 hours today. At AWE I met @codefrau, who explained to me how they achieve full cross-platform determinism to a bit level, so I was intrigued!🤓 Open Source on GitHub, try the live example on GitHub pages: github.com/Squareys/wonderla… #WebXR #WebGL #JavaScript

This is really amazing - up to 5000 replicated NPCs in a single world - all interacting with the user and other objects - and perfectly synchronized! @croquetio @threejs I was also able to figure out how you could handle that many avatars in a scene. youtu.be/ZD1Pqvo1La4

I have so much FUN 🤩 experimenting with technologies by smashing a couple of them together. Combined democratized video @MuxHQ and democratized metaverse @CroquetIO to get an #LLHLS stream of Big Buck Bunny playing in a @threejs world ✨

Your questions are great! This wasn't easy to figure out - it was like factoring a really complex equation. We did the original in Smalltalk which really helped. This version of the Croquet kernel was done by @codefrau, who really knocked it out of the park. It is beautiful.
