Unity

Installing a package

We are going to try and install the Newtonsoft.Json nuget package as example. This is a package that allows you to parse json from and to strings. This functionality already exists in C#, but it is limited, whilst this package is not.

1. We go to the package manager, you can find this: window->package manager.
2. Click on the + to install a package.
   • We tried to install Newtonsoft.Json by name, but that doesn’t work. So here are the steps to import this one specifically.
     1. it turns out that the name of the package is com.unity.nuget.newtonsoft-json which you somehow have to know. xD
     2. paste that into the name field under import by name.
