UE5 AndroidXR Template
13A pre-configured UE5 VR Template for Android XR — package straight to a Galaxy XR headset.
The story
Epic's stock VR Template doesn't know Android XR exists. This fork does the SDK/NDK/manifest wiring by hand — minimum and target SDK 32, NDK 25.1.8937393, JDK 17 — and bundles the AndroidXR plugin (started by Owlchemy Labs, now maintained by Agile Lens) so a Galaxy XR build is Platforms → Android → Android_ASTC → Package Project, not a week of trial-and-error. Passthrough is wired through OpenXR project settings out of the box, so mixed reality works the moment the APK lands on the headset.
