- src/home_platform.h: what Frame Home and the panel need from the system (paths, finding and stopping each
other, running a tool, restarting, priorities) for SteamOS, Windows and Linux PCs. On a PC the environments are
Frame Studio's My Environments; Frame Home's own files in %LOCALAPPDATA%\Frame Home (Windows).
- src/openvr_loader.cpp: a PC build finds SteamVR's own OpenVR library at run time (openvrpaths.vrpath), so it runs
on any PC with SteamVR; Vulkan through volk. CMake: FRAME_HOME_PC (default on Windows and x86-64 Linux); the Steam
Frame build is unchanged.
- Windows: Frame Home is SteamVR's home app; SteamVR's classic environment shows a 360-degree picture of the current
home from its spawn (frame-home --panorama --spawn, made by the panel when the home changes) instead of Aurora
while Frame Home starts. Linux PCs: the Steam Frame's compositor layer, as on the headset.
- frame/pc: install-frame-home-pc.ps1 (+ .bat): online through SteamVR's API or offline in its config files; the
SteamVR settings it changes are saved and restored exactly on -Uninstall (tested in a sandbox both ways).
frame-switcher --uninstall. Studio: Properties > Headset > This PC installs it from pc/ beside Studio.
- Packaging and CI: pc/ in the Windows x64 and Linux x64 Studio downloads; FrameHome-PC-windows-x64.zip.
- Thumbnails come from where Frame Home starts you (the first spawn, eyes 1.6 m up): Studio's saves and the
panel's (frame-home --snapshot --spawn).

Frame Studio now builds for Windows (x64, x86, ARM64), Linux (x64, x86, ARM64)
and macOS (Apple Silicon, Intel):
- studio/platform.h with Win32 and POSIX implementations (dialogs through
tinyfiledialogs on Linux/macOS), a GLFW window beside the Win32 one, and a
platform-neutral frame pacer
- MoltenVK support in the renderer (portability enumeration) and bundled in
the macOS app
- 32-bit builds: large-address-aware, LZMA packing within a 32-bit address space
- unaligned file reads in the loaders go through loadUnaligned (no UB)
- scripts/build-studio.sh, studio/build_windows.bat [x64|x86|arm64],
cmake/llvm-mingw.cmake, and a GitHub Actions workflow building every target
Frame Home installs without Studio: frame/install-frame-home.{sh,ps1} and
"Install Frame Home.bat" (packaged as FrameHome-installer.zip).
