hubs
Mozilla Hubs
The client-side code for Mozilla Hubs, an online 3D collaboration platform that works for desktop, mobile, and VR platforms.
Getting Started
If you would like to run Hubs on your own servers, check out Hubs Cloud.
If you would like to deploy a custom client to your existing Hubs Cloud instance please refer to this guide.
If you would like to contribute to the main fork of the Hubs client please see the contributor guide.
If you just want to check out how Hubs works and make your own modifications continue on to our Quick Start Guide.
Quick Start
Install NodeJS if you haven’t already. We recommend version 12 or above.
Run the following commands:
git clone https://github.com/mozilla/hubs.git
cd hubs
npm ci
npm run dev
Then visit https://localhost:8080 (note: HTTPS is required, you’ll need to accept the warning for the self-signed SSL certificate)
Note: When running the Hubs client locally, you will still connect to the development versions of our Janus WebRTC and reticulum servers. These servers do not allow being accessed outside of localhost. If you want to host your own Hubs servers, please check out Hubs Cloud.
Documentation
