If https://thenewstack.io/metaverse-developers/ is to become a reality, there will need to be development and content creation tools for it. So far, in the early days of metaverse hype, Facebook — oops, I mean Meta — has tried to co-opt the trend.

Before I spoke to Rousset, I had a tinker with https://playground.babylonjs.com/, a browser-based tool to create and edit 3D web content.

But having tools like Babylon.js in its arsenal indicates that Microsoft will probably include web standards in its metaverse strategy.

We can only hope that Meta follows suit, because web standards are our best hope for an interoperable metaverse.
