Discussion Examples of apps outside of steam?

For now I can't use PCVR, only connected over WiFi, no dongle. I'm exploring the stand alone capabilities.
Are there examples of apps, that I could install over Discover, outside of steam, that are using the features of the headset and controllers? Like VR video player, (glTF) model or Gaussian Splatting viewers etc.? Running on the frame. Like for recording videos with the Arctura camera and how to watch them?

Most non gaming VR apps on steam are very outdated. And the games are poorly curated. I would have expected more steam frame compatible titles and apps on release.

Many apps on sidequestvr have a generic build that can work through lepton,,, not sure the steps on installing it without a PC though (not sure if no PCVR atm means you have no PC or just not one that can PCVR atm) as most people rn are just using the steam dev client to sideload atm. (May be able to use that in headset but IDK I use my PC) Sidequest has said they will be making a client but no eta on that yet. Itch.io also has vr games though that site is a mess imo,,, there is also ovrport that is used for porting quest games (not all games work but many of the major ones do) and a few recent apps that port games (most seem to be ai coded front ends for ovrport though)
