## What it is
A Unity plugin that wraps native file open/save dialogs for Windows, macOS, and Linux standalone builds, with basic WebGL support. It supports sync and async calls, multi-select, folder picking, and file extension filters in both editor and runtime.

## Use cases
- open a native file picker in a unity game
- save file dialog for unity standalone builds
- let players select multiple files with extension filters
- pick a folder path at runtime in unity
- upload and download files in unity webgl builds

## When to choose
- you need native OS file dialogs in a Unity desktop build
- you want a simple drop-in unitypackage with sync and async APIs
- you need Windows, macOS, and Linux support from one library

## When to avoid
- you target mobile platforms like Android or iOS
- you need reliable, fully-featured WebGL file operations
- you require async dialogs on Windows (not implemented)

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: stable
- function: file-system, gui, sdk
- domain: cross-platform, desktop-applications
- platform: windows, cross-platform
- tags: unity, unity3d, file-dialog, file-browser, native-plugin, csharp, il2cpp, mono, game-development, macos, linux, webgl
