Unity Development Resources
New to Unity? Want to learn how to navigate the interface and learn the basic terminology used in the engine?
There are plenty of free resources online that cover the basics of Unity. We recommend you have a basic understanding of the Unity interface, and knowing terms like Scene, GameObject, Hierarchy, Inspector, and Assets will be beneficial but not necessary.
This page will not cover any VR or AR specific platforms such as Oculus or Vuforia. It is intended to get you comfortable using Unity, which many of our workshops are taught in. To learn those technologies, visit the respective workshop pages.
