Core Goals: Build a minimal viable product where users can log in with a Solana wallet, navigate to real-world locations, view "treasure" in AR, and receive an NFT reward for discovery. This phase focuses on core functionality and cross-platform deployment (iOS & Android) with minimal custom infrastructure.
- Mobile App & AR: Use Unity with AR Foundation to develop the app once and deploy on both iOS (ARKit) and Android (ARCore). Unity's AR Foundation provides a cross-platform AR framework so the same C# code works for both ARKit and ARCore. This greatly simplifies development and ensures feature parity. Leverage device GPS/location services in Unity to tie AR content to real-world locations (e.g. spawn a treasure chest when the user is within a certain radius). Optionally, integrate ARCore Geospatial API (via AR Foundation's ARCore Extensions) to
