A comprehensive collection of templates and examples for building Lens experiences on Spectacles.
This repository contains multiple template projects showcasing different features and capabilities available when building for Spectacles. Each template is a complete, working example that you can use as a starting point for your own projects.
This repository requires Git LFS (Large File Storage) to be installed and configured. The templates contain large assets including 3D models, textures, images, and media files that are tracked using Git LFS.
macOS (using Homebrew):
brew install git-lfsWindows: Download and install from git-lfs.github.com
Linux:
# Debian/Ubuntu
sudo apt-get install git-lfs
# Fedora/Red Hat
sudo dnf install git-lfsAfter installing Git LFS, you need to set it up:
git lfs installWhen cloning this repository, Git LFS will automatically download the large files:
git clone <repository-url>
cd Spectacles-TemplatesIf you've already cloned the repository without Git LFS installed, you can fetch the LFS files:
git lfs install
git lfs pullTo verify that Git LFS is working correctly:
git lfs ls-filesThis will show you all files tracked by Git LFS.
