    ProBuilder
    ProBuilder is a unique hybrid of 3D modeling and level design tools, optimized for building simple geometry but capable of detailed editing and UV unwrapping as needed. ProBuilder lets you quickly prototype structures, complex terrain features, vehicles, and weapons; or lets you make custom collision geometry, trigger zones, or navmeshes.

    The ProBuilder documentation contains not only pesky words and stuff, but also full demo videos for each and every function! Check it out here: procore3d.com/probuilder/docs

    ProGrids
    ProGrids gives you both a visual and functional grid, which snaps on all 3 axis. ProGrids enables speed and quality, making level construction incredibly fast, easy, and precise. It is especially handy for modular or tile-based environments, but you will find that it significantly speeds up workflow and increases quality for all types of work.

    ProGrids documentation: procore3d.com/progrids/docs

    PolyBrush
    Polybrush enables you to blend textures and colors, sculpt meshes directly in the Unity editor. Polybrush is in beta, and just got a new feature in its latest iteration, it now allows to scatter objects in the world with highly customizable brushes.

    It feels kinda weird posting other people's content.... I hope that I'm understanding your request correctly?

    Are there any detailed tutorials and step-by-step guides showing how to use the scripting API?
    The overview page in the documentation is very minimal (the code in "modify a mesh" also doesn't work for me) https://docs.unity3d.com/Packages/com.unity.probuilder@4.0/manual/api.html
    and some of the examples in the package don't have any comments explaining what the code is doing (e.g. Runtime Editing).

    It would be great to have some nice hands-on guides for the API.
