    How to use UI Toolkit to create efficient and modern runtime UI.

    Hello! Hope you are all having a great week. :]
    I have made an intro tutorial about UI Toolkit for Runtime.

    Check it out on YouTube and enjoy: bit.ly/UI-Toolkit-Runtime-Playlist2

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

    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?

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


    In this tutorial 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 tutorial is based on one tutorial project.


    Why learn from me?

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

    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.

    Very useful. It would be nice if you could cover animation (color changes or size increases) in future videos.
