Prerequisites

Before you start, you need to have an account on Figma and install Unity (2022.3) on your computer.

Install VR

The following steps have been tested with Meta's VR Quest 2 glasses. If you haven't downloaded the software for your VR, install it so that you can connect your computer to the VR.

• Installation link: Meta VR Setup

After installation, open the Oculus software and go to Settings -> General -> OpenXR runtime.

Then turn on the VR, allow access to the files and activate the VR's "Quest Link" or "Rift" setting.

Now in Uniy Hub, create a new project using the VR option as a template, that way everything will be configured. Now just press play in Unity.

To use Figma Convert first draw one or more interfaces (it is important that precision interfaces are components).

Then, to position the components the way you want them to be positioned in Unity:

• Select the components you want to export.
• Click the Figma icon to open the menu.
• Go to plugin and Figma To Unity For Virtual Reality (FUVR).

In the plugin you can position each component in the place you want, just select the component with double click and place it in the position you want.
