Create Croquet Microverse

Introduction

Croquet Microverse is a framework to build multiplayer immersive 3D virtual worlds on the web. It is built on the Croquet OS and the Worldcore framework. Please refer to https://github.com/croquet/microverse for more information.

This utility create-croquet-microverse allows you to set up a minimum working installation by simply running the following in an empty directory:

 npm init croquet-microverse

The process copies some files into the top-level directory and sets things up. Then you can run:

 npm start

and from a web browser to open localhost:9684 to open the world.

You can then modify the default world file worlds/default.js, and add behavior files to expand the world. You can add more asset files in the assets directory, or use the Croquet DataId to refer to more assets from your world.

Deployment

You can copy all files in behaviors, assets, lib, meta, and worlds along with index.html and apiKey.js to your publicly accessible HTTP server to have your own deployment. You can also use a hosting services such as Netlify and Vercel, which let you connect your GitHub repository to automate deployment. Note that the auto generated default apiKey for your Croquet account allows anybody to use it from any site. In order to protect your API key from unauthorized use, you should create a new apiKey with URL restriction limited to your site.
