# Welcome to xRLive

> Run real-time 3D visuals, audience interactions, and live game shows from a single dashboard

xRLive is a live event platform that runs on your desktop. Load a visual, connect it to your stage output, and control everything in real time from the operator dashboard — no coding required.

## Getting started

<Steps>
  <Step title="Create an account">
    Sign up at [dashboard.xrlive.app](https://dashboard.xrlive.app) and choose a plan. A **PRO** subscription lets you run visuals on stage. A **CREATOR** subscription lets you also build and publish your own visuals.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Download the Launcher">
    Download the xRLive Launcher for your platform (Windows or Mac) from the dashboard. Install and log in with your account.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Get a visual">
    Browse the Marketplace inside the dashboard and download a visual. Visuals are `.xrlive` files created by the xRLive creator community.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Open and run it">
    In the Launcher, select your visual and click **Open**. The game window launches and your visual is live. The operator dashboard gives you real-time controls.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## The operator dashboard

Once a visual is running you have full control from the dashboard:

  <Card title="Live Controls" icon="sliders">
    Adjust sliders, toggle checkboxes, pick colors, and trigger buttons in real time. Every control is defined by the visual creator and responds instantly on stage.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Presets" icon="bookmark">
    Save your current control values as a preset and recall them instantly during a show. Presets are stored locally per visual.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Audience Interaction" icon="users">
    Connect your audience via mobile. They vote, answer questions, and react — all synced live to the visual on stage.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Audio Reactivity" icon="waveform-lines">
    Some controls react to the beat of your audio feed automatically. The visual responds to the music without any manual input.
