## What it is
Official Unity sample projects and tutorials for DOTS (Data-Oriented Technology Stack), covering the Entities ECS framework, Job System, Burst compiler, Physics, Netcode, and Entities Graphics packages. It includes 101-style learning materials with documents, videos, and runnable Unity 6.2 sample projects.

## Use cases
- learn Unity ECS entity component system
- learn how to use the C# job system for multithreading
- find sample projects for Unity DOTS physics and netcode
- get started with data-oriented design in Unity
- see examples of Burst-compiled high-performance C# code
- learn Entities Graphics rendering with HDRP and URP

## When to choose
- you are learning Unity DOTS, ECS, or the Job System from scratch
- you want official, up-to-date sample projects for Unity 6.x DOTS packages
- you need reference implementations for Entities, Physics, Netcode, or Entities Graphics

## When to avoid
- you need a reusable library or package to add to your project rather than samples
- you are not working with Unity or the DOTS ecosystem
- you need a general-purpose ECS framework outside Unity

## Facets
