The beta status signals API stabilization, making these libraries suitable for production integration. Developers can add the new beta dependencies (version 1.0.0-beta02 for SceneCore, ARCore, and Runtime, with Compose still at 1.0.0-alpha17) via the Google Maven repository, and start building and testing on Samsung Galaxy XR devices or the Android XR Emulator. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.

Jetpack SceneCore reached beta at version 1.0.0-beta02, along with ARCore for Jetpack XR and XR Runtime at the same version. Jetpack Compose for XR remains at 1.0.0-alpha17 while it is expected to reach beta soon. These libraries are added via the Google Maven repository in build.gradle files, and the beta status means their APIs are stabilizing enough for production integration. _daily.dev helps XR developers keep track of Jetpack XR SDK version changes as they stabilize toward production._ ### Is Jetpack Compose for XR ready for production use? Not yet at full beta status, but it is close. While Jetpack SceneCore, ARCore for Jetpack XR, and XR Runtime have all reached 1.0.0-beta02, Jetpack Compose for XR remains at 1.0.0-alpha17 and is expected to follow the other libraries into beta soon, indicating its API is still subject to change. _Developers planning Android XR builds can follow daily.dev for updates on Compose for XR's beta readiness._ --- Tags: [#android](https://daily.dev/tags/android), [#ar](https://daily.dev/tags/ar), [#jetpack-compose](https://daily.dev/tags/jetpack-compose) [View this post on daily.dev](https://daily.dev/posts/jetpack-xr-sdk-core-libraries-reach-beta-the-next-milestone-for-android-xr-jnyp6ogkx)
