Flock XR

3D visual creativity and coding tool

Flock XR is a visual creativity and coding tool that allows young people to create 3D experiences in a web browser. Flock XR allows young people and beginners to create apps relevant to the virtual worlds that they use socially. Through creating with Flock XR, young people develop technical and creative skills such as coding and working in 3D space with 3D models and animations. They will be able to create using extended reality features including VR, Augmented Reality, 3D printing and spatial audio. This puts them on the path to amazing career opportunities across many industries. Flock XR is being developed with an inclusion first approach using co-design techniques with young people in our pilots. After a successful schools pilot we are focussing on improving user experience, stability and access for all.

Flock XR builds on established open source tools, Blockly and Babylon.js to bring modern 3D creation to young people on the devices they already use. We’re designing Flock XR for users who may have older hardware and limited data access. And we take young people’s rights, safety and data privacy very seriously. We’re extending young people’s reality with Flock XR and giving them the skills to create the virtual worlds that humanity needs.
