¶ Week 2
Progress: We built a Test/Intro project using Unity, which gave us an understanding of the problems with Unity and VS version compatibility. We were also able to understand Unity project structure, including auto-generated files, packages (e.g. MRTK tools), scripts (C# code), building scenes and Materials, using Inspector (e.g. gravity), and utilizing MRTK features (e.g. Object Manipulator)
We were also able to deploy a version of the project to the headset over wifi (directions in pptx for future)
Problem: All older versions have code errors, and the newer one has an MQTT error.
