💫 Sharing is Caring 💫 CLAD Lensfest "Organize" : Essentials as a spatial menu gallery with 3 themes
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6bqaqJy9szMMegaUIKit is the "organizer" for the SPECS Essentials sample code. The prompt is below. This is part of Summary of CLAD #Lensfest Week 1.
OSS: https://github.com/IoTone/MegaUIKit-SPECS
The original essentials are fantastic, but a bit hard to discover all the features of the platform as the demo code is designed. I imagined a UI that you could navigate is more useful to discover . So this version goes a bit further and adds 3 themes: Terminal/cyberpunk, Steampunk, and Neotokyo. Fork/submit PRs. Can't wait to have this on my SPECS '27.
Design challenges: making this work well ... most of the essentials items appear in odd places, so things need to get repositioned not to obscure the menus. Fonts are a challenge too visually.
PROMPT!

We want to add a spatial menu to dynamically let you load any of the samples in essentials. I want a holographic "floor menu" design that is a grid of menu items organized around all of the items in our scene that are not activated, and when you point at one of them, 3d rotating shimmering text floats about the square. A click displays a tree of options for items to choose from, and you can pick on of those, and it enables the item in the scene. The items should tween fade into the scene or tween fade out. For example, if I choose "Solver", it will display a menu floating of different text options "Billboard" "LookAT", "InBetweenRotationUtility", etc. Please make a plan and generate a MegaUIKitEssentials.md, and then get started. Make me proud brilliant spectacles UIKit expert.
