## What it is
UnityFx.Outline is a C# library providing configurable screen-space outline effects for Unity3d, supporting per-object and per-camera outlines with solid and blurred modes. It integrates with Unity's command buffers, Post-processing Stack v2, and the Universal Render Pipeline.

## Use cases
- highlight selected objects with outlines in a Unity game
- add per-object outline effects to Unity3d scenes
- render blurred glow outlines around characters
- add outline post-processing effect in URP
- customize outline color width and intensity at runtime

## When to choose
- you need configurable per-object or per-camera outlines in Unity
- you use Unity 2018.4+ with built-in RP, Post-processing v2, or URP
- you need XR-compatible outline effects with no external dependencies

## When to avoid
- you target HDRP (not yet supported)
- you need outlines outside the Unity engine
- you need an actively developed solution with frequent updates
