AtomicXR is no longer maintained. The following tools replace it, and achieve the same goals much more practical way:

- VR Homebrew Tap -> [Homebrew-XR](https://tangled.org/matrixfurry.com/homebrew-xr)

- Envision on Fedora Atomic -> [Envision-OCI](https://tangled.org/matrixfurry.com/envision-oci)

Universal Blue distros (e.g. Bazzite). The builds there were often out of date, missing features that people needed, or
32
31
just didn't work at all.

Homebrew-XR contains even more VR software, stays up to date, and works on almost any distro
35

where Homebrew is installed, including Bazzite and Fedora.

### 2. Envision in Distrobox (`axr envision`) has been replaced with Envision-OCI

Maintenance was also very tedious and difficult. Anytime something was updated or fixed, more bugs
54
53
would appear. Eventually, it got too out of date, and no longer could install or run at all.

Luckily, you don't have to worry about any of that anymore. Envision-OCI takes a much simpler approach, it just uses a
57
-
shim to run builds in Podman, from pre-built container images that include all the required build dependencies out of
58
-
the box. All it needs to work is a modified PATH containing the shims, no more manual patches or building from source required.

Pre-built Monado packages will also be available soon in the Homebrew-XR repository. Most people won't need to worry about
61
60
building it themselves. You'll be able to install Monado in seconds, and use Envision as an easy launcher and configuration tool.

### 3. AtomicXR CLI's manual system configuration commands have been replaced by [LXRAC](https://tangled.org/matrixfurry.com/lxrac)

### 3. AtomicXR CLI's manual system configuration commands are no longer necessary
64
63
65
64
Using the AtomicXR CLI to manually configure your system was confusing and not at all obvious. Most people using AtomicXR
66
65
never touched anything but `axr envision install`, and there was no real way to know which commands you needed to run to
67
66
properly configure your system. If anything, these features caused more confusion than solved issues.

-
[lxrac](https://tangled.org/matrixfurry.com/lxrac) (Linux XR Auto-Configuration) provides an easy way to automatically
70
-
configure your system optimally for VR. It will detect what VR software you're running and automatically apply the best
71
-
configuration for you, no manual work needed.
68
+
The necessary configuration will now be automatically applied when installing applications via Homebrew-XR
