A simple, easy-to-read toon lit shader example for Unity's Universal Render Pipeline (URP), intended as a shader coding tutorial. It demonstrates writing custom lit shaders in HLSL with outline support for character rendering.

Use cases

• learn writing custom toon lit shaders in Unity URP
• add cel-shaded look to game characters
• implement outline rendering for characters
• study HLSL shader code examples for URP
• create anime-style character rendering in Unity

When to choose

• you want a minimal, readable example to learn URP shader coding
• you need a simple toon shader with outlines for Unity characters
• you are learning HLSL within Unity's render pipeline

When to avoid

• you need a production-ready full-featured toon shader suite (use NiloToonURP full version)
• you are not using Unity URP
• you need shaders for other engines like Unreal or Godot
