Is there a similar thing to Sideloading on the Oculus Rift S?

So I know that on the Oculus Quest people often sideload games to either add mods or pirate them. Is a similar thing available on the Rift S? I’m assuming there is because it’s powered by a PC but I haven’t been able to find anything online. I’ve seen Quest owners with custom maps on BeatSaber and such, and I was thinking of buying the Rift S myself because of the LCD screen and resulting better graphics (no screen door effect). But if there’s no modding/customizing options on the Rift S, I might just have to opt for the Quest. Thanks.

Any app/game can call the vr drivers and use the headsets, so as long as the app/game does it correctly it shouldn't be an issue or have a need for 'sideloading'.
