## What it is
A React library for embedding Unity WebGL builds in React applications with advanced two-way communication APIs between Unity and React. It provides hooks and components for loading Unity content, tracking loading progress, and exchanging messages between the two environments.

## Use cases
- embed a Unity WebGL game in a React app
- communicate between Unity and React components
- show loading progress for a Unity WebGL build
- call Unity methods from JavaScript
- send messages from Unity to React
- build interactive web interfaces around a Unity application

## When to choose
- you have a Unity WebGL build and want to integrate it into a React application
- you need bidirectional communication between Unity and web page components
- you want loading state management and event handling for Unity content in React

## When to avoid
- your project does not use React
- you are embedding Unity content in a plain HTML page or a non-React framework
- you need to embed game engines other than Unity

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: active
- function: ui-components, wasm, developer-tools
- domain: web-development, frontend, gaming-tools
- platform: browser
- tags: react, unity, webgl, two-way-communication, typescript, game-development, web-server, javascript
