Oculus Link & Unity Set Up Guide
Oculus Link is here! Since there's little information available so far, here's a quick guide.
Set Up
The cables that ship with the Oculus Quest don't work (even though the set up in Oculus Desktop shows that), you will need a good USB 3 to USB C cable.
Should work with all versions of Unity listed by Oculus.
Works with Oculus Integrations 1.41 - Doesn't work with 1.38

Other notes
- My controllers were in 3dof and invisible when I entered Oculus Link, restarting my quest/computer fixed that
- The hands will turn into controllers when they stop registering input
- The mouse in the virtual desktop disappears when both hands turn into controllers or the pointer is off screen
- If you run Unity from Explore/Library, it will launch the project. You can't tell which project it'll open, so I choose to open it on my computer then Add Desktop Panel
