    What workloads do I need to have the c# library project template ? I first tried the bloated UWP, but didn't see the basic library that was being used in a tutorial I was following.

    Haven't tried it myself, but it looks to be as straightforward as selecting Universal Windows App Development Tools in Visual Studio Installer.

    TY for the reply, here is a link to the video. It's a little blurry at times, but it looks like the only reference needed is the Unity Engine library. The UWP library templates allow me to add the unity lib but has a locked ( Un- editable ) bulk reference to UWP libraries, so I guess I'm looking for a cleaner / leaner template. The vid template has Net Framework in its description, and one of the setup steps involves changing the target platform to net 3.5, so maybe that's the workload I need idk. These workloads Install in strange places and don't always uninstall fully, and that messes with my OCD lol.

    I've only watched about 20 seconds of that video so I can't give a detailed review of it. However, my suggestion would be to stick with the Microsoft tutorial video I linked to. I suspect there may be more chance of it being accurate and easy to follow. :)
