  • NativeWebSocket

    🔌 WebSocket client for Unity - with no external dependencies (WebGL, Native, Android, iOS, UWP)

  • This might be a bit of an issue. Basically there are many viable ways to network with Unity, but there is no good "official" Unity network stack. For example if you have a browser game, you won't be quite able to use UDP based network libraries. You could either use regular http requests then or WebSockets. For the later I had good experiences with https://github.com/endel/NativeWebSocket . However, I wouldn't say any of that network stuff is particularly beginner friendly if you just start out.

  • engine

    Fast and lightweight JavaScript game engine built on WebGL and glTF

  • It's open source. And since you mention coding standards, the codebase is really well structured/written.
