QuestBridge
QuestBridge is a Minecraft client-side Fabric mod that bridges Meta Quest 3 controllers directly to Minecraft Java Edition running natively on the headset. It hosts a local WebXR webpage that captures controller inputs and sends them to the running game instance via a low-latency WebSocket server, enabling a console-like immersive experience entirely standalone without a PC.
