Kalle Jillheden edited this page May 3, 2020 · 7 revisions

Unity Package Manager, or UPM for short, is Unity's new solution for managing packages so they don't need to be included inside the /Assets folder.

Have a look at the Unity Package Manager docs for more info.

OpenUPM is wonderful initiative by @favoyang that takes this one step further by providing a unified registry and command-line tool for distributing various packages supporting UPM deployment.

Prerequisites
