Description


Create a runtime interface of a simple game, using UI Toolkit - UIElements.


Would you like to be ahead of the recent changes made by Unity and prepare for the future of the UI system?

Well then welcome to this course!
You will learn how to use the UI Toolkit to create runtime interfaces, that you can use in commercial games or applications.


Unity introduced the UI Toolkit (previously called UI Elements) to move from the current UGUI and even older IMGUI to a new system, based on standard web technologies: CSS and XML.


Why learn UI Toolkit now?

It is still in a beta version, but you can already prepare for the future.

Unity has decided this new system will eventually become the main supported framework, both for runtime and in the editor.


In this course you will:

  • Learn the basic concepts of the modern UI framework, based on CSS and XML.

  • Discover UI Builder to create UI documents and styles.

  • Implement interactive elements, like buttons and labels.

  • Create simple transitions between panels and screens.

  • Learn how to connect data with the interface elements.


This course is based on one tutorial project.
You will go step by step through the complete process of implementing this new system.

It does not explain all UI Toolkit elements (e.g. a toggle control, or a text field).
However you will be able to use them as well, after you learn the basics, using a button and a label component.


Why learn from me?

I have been a Unity programmer for more than 5 years and delivered over 20 different projects.

I have a lot of experience that I love to share with my coworkers and students to maximize their potential.
However, I also do my best to listen and help students find answers and solutions to the problems they face.

I know how difficult it sometimes is to implement new frameworks and technologies introduced by Unity.
Especially the ones that are still in a beta version.

That is why I have created this course.
I want to help you start using UI Toolkit today and prepare for the transition that will happen soon.


Start learning now and I'll see you in the course! :)


Who this course is for:
