New User Interface System Status

News & General Discussion

Greetings good people,

What is the status of the new user interface system that Unity is supposed to be working on? I remember about a year or so ago that Unity stated they were creating a new UI system that would be similar to how web developers create user interfaces. Did it come out yet? I can’t find any information about it online.

Thanks

Wow! Thanks. Is it ready for production? I am about to start a new project and want to know if I can use it with confidence.

Thanks again.

“Although Unity recommends using UI Toolkit for some new UI development projects, it is still missing features found in Unity UI (uGUI) and IMGUI. These older systems are more appropriate for certain use cases, and are required to support legacy projects. For information about when it is appropriate to choose an older system instead of the UI Toolkit, see the Comparison of UI systems in Unity.”

“UI Toolkit is in active development. This page will update frequently as the feature set evolves.”
