Origami Studio

Master patch-based prototyping. Build logic-heavy prototypes with device sensors, loops, and haptics using Meta's free tool.

Origami Studio is Meta's internal tool, released for free. It uses a node-based 'patch' editor to create logic without writing code. This course teaches you to build prototypes that use real device sensors (Gyroscope, Camera, Microphone). You will master patches for math, logic loops, and haptic feedback. Learn to create realistic physics simulations and complex state management that other tools can't handle. The ultimate tool for high-fidelity mobile prototyping.
