# Meta XR Simulator Installation and Configuration

## When to Use This Skill

- You need to test a Meta VR application without a physical headset connected
- You want rapid iteration during development without deploying to device each time
- You are setting up CI/CD pipelines that need automated testing of Meta VR apps
- You want to validate core interactions, UI, and locomotion before deploying to hardware

## What is Meta XR Simulator

Meta XR Simulator is a desktop tool that simulates a Meta VR environment on your development machine. It intercepts the OpenXR runtime calls your application makes and provides simulated headset tracking, controller input, hand tracking, and environment data, allowing you to run and test VR/MR applications directly in your engine's editor or as standalone desktop builds.

The simulator does not replicate Meta VR hardware performance. It runs on your desktop GPU and CPU. Its purpose is functional testing, not performance profiling.
