The official C# reference source code for the Unity engine and editor, published by Unity Technologies. It is provided for reading and reference only under a reference-only license that forbids modification or redistribution.

Use cases

• understand how Unity engine APIs work internally
• look up Unity editor C# implementation details
• debug unexpected behavior in Unity APIs
• learn engine architecture from real source code
• find undocumented parameters or behaviors in Unity classes

When to choose

• you develop with Unity and want to inspect how engine and editor C# code works
• you need to trace API behavior that isn't covered by documentation

When to avoid

• you want to copy, modify, or redistribute the code - the license forbids it
• you need the full engine including C++ sources - that requires a commercial source code license
• you want to contribute code - pull requests are not accepted
