Using Arc Shared Spaces as Course Containers

Package and distribute structured curriculum using Arc browser's shared Spaces feature

From the Xiry library · Updated 11 October 2026

This technique uses Arc browser's shared Spaces feature to build lightweight, web-native courses. By structuring modules as folders and lessons as individual tabs or video links, creators can distribute an entire curriculum via a single shared URL without needing an LMS.

How it works

Convert a whole online course into a shareable set of Arc tabs using shared Spaces: folders for modules, tabs for lessons, YouTube videos, etc. Share via an arc.net/space link. Grant suggests you could build an entire curriculum this way. (Inspired by Patrick Moberg's video course format.)

What it's for

  • Distribute a free online curriculum without hosting a dedicated learning platform
  • Organize research or reading lists into structured modules for students or colleagues
  • Package onboarding materials and tool setups for new team members

Key points

  • Uses folders to represent course modules or units
  • Organizes individual lessons and resources as pinned tabs within folders
  • Shares the entire structured workspace via a single arc.net link
  • Allows recipients to import and interact with the structure in their own Arc browser

Pricing

Free (built-in Arc browser feature)
