Hyper-Space Documents

Hyper-space documents (HSDs) are the spatial unit of The Wired. They are stored as a record and can be placed into any space.

Structure

HSD is a simple format describing the hierarchy of nodes and other data. Each node can have a position, mesh, material, physics properties, or scripts that define its behavior.

Binary data like mesh geometry, textures, and scripts are stored as blobs, separate from the record itself. This keeps the document light and allows heavy assets to be cached, re-used by other documents, and lazily fetched.

Collaboration

Because HSDs are built as WDS records, they inherit all the benefits of that same CRDT system. This enables easy collaboration in real-time or offline, as well as workflows involving document forking and merging.
