Wabi Foundation

An American nonprofit organization dedicated to fostering the growth of Kraken, the open-source Metaverse designed for content creation.

Introduction

We're giving artists & developers the tools they need to build the Open Source Metaverse (Web 3.0).

All open source code, including all the underlying frameworks and libraries that make up the metaverse can be found on GitHub.

Originally, Kraken began as a proof of concept for harnessing the power of Pixar USD to build massive feature length films within a highly collaborative 3D animation production pipeline. It's now evolved to host the core infrastructure for the future of the internet, and providing artists with the tools they need to build stunning new experiences all across our digital landscape.Together, we will architect these strange new worlds - founded upon universal interoperability of open standards and protocols, decentralized away from individual corporations and government regulations.

Some Wabi code blocks

Here's one example of a network request to a USD Stage.

/**
 * This is a Pixar USD Prim Index, specifying a custom root index 
 * (or grouping) of 3D objects, relative to this index, and is also
 * globally referenceable at this index, this works just like a UUID 
 * in the form of a URL, like how a web browser resolves websites. */
struct CreateMyUniverse: USDPrimIndex
{
  func prepare(on stage: USDStage) async throws 
  {
    try await (stage as! USDStage)
      .create(root: "my_universe_index")
      .on("universeObjects")
      .run()
  }

  func revert(on stage: USDStage) async throws 
  {
    try await (stage as! USDStage)
      .drop(root: "my_universe_index")
      .run()
  }
}

And then we have some inline code: let usdIsAwesome = true

And now a quote:

Hendrerit amet nibh dui ut in feugiat pellentesque. Sed consectetur blandit lectus arcu lacus libero diam. Nulla turpis etiam non et, adipiscing. Egestas at vitae, at purus accumsan fermentum. Sed quis sed nulla malesuada.

And finally a list:

  • Lectus id duis vitae porttitor enim gravida morbi.
  • Eu turpis posuere semper feugiat volutpat elit, ultrices suspendisse. Auctor vel in vitae placerat.
  • Suspendisse maecenas ac donec scelerisque diam sed est duis purus.
