XRTK developer update 10th Feb 2020
Life is always moving fast. If you don't stop and take a look around every once in a while, you might miss it. XRTK ploughed on in my absence last week due to "work stuff" (it always gets in the way), but still more to talk about
New Core release
The Core XRTk framework got an update this week, pumping it up to 0.1.30. This release contained mostly performance fixes and tweaks, as well as some pre-enhancements for configuration validation.
To update, just visit the Unity Package manager and click update (also has a dependant SDK update) or visit the release page for information on getting it freshly installed.
Partner vendor etee announcement
etee came front and center in the XRTK Discord to announce their ties with XRTK, looking to leverage the framework to extend their reach for device support with their awesome new hand’s devices. While image-based hand tracking is good, it loses some fidelity that controllers naturally give you. the etee controllers are a leap forward in this area (similar to Vive Index controllers) and strap on to your hands to give you full hands responsive input.

Upcoming XRTK dev streams
As the founding team, both @StephenHodgson and SimonDarksideJ are always committed to getting information out as soon as possible. So, we are taking to the web with a series of dev streams (Watch out we are bluntly honest) as we build out more of the framework.
Stay tuned for more info soon.
