UE5 VR template can't build to Quest2

Hi there,
Complete noob to UE, just started this week. I keep getting this message when I try to follow youtube tutorials. Java, Android and VS are all up to date. The “Binaries\Android\MyProject7.target” never gets created.

is UE5 too buggy, and I should just try in UE4?

LogPlayLevel: Setting up ProjectParams for C:\Users\natha\Documents\Unreal Projects\MyProject7\MyProject7.uproject
LogPlayLevel: MyProject7.uproject requires a temporary target.cs to be generated (OpenXR plugin is enabled)

This problem seems unrelated to UE5 but I would suggest you stick with UE4 if you’re specifically learning VR development as there’s very little documentation and learning resources on that topic. Your skills will transfer to UE5. Good luck!
