VContainer is a fast, GC-allocation-free dependency injection (DI) container library for the Unity Game Engine, written in C#. It offers constructor/method/property injection, flexible lifetime scoping, plain C# entry points via Unity's PlayerLoopSystem, and integrations with UniTask, UniRx, MessagePipe, and Unity ECS.

Use cases

• set up dependency injection in a Unity game project
• replace Zenject with a faster DI container for Unity
• decouple domain logic from MonoBehaviour in Unity
• inject dependencies into plain C# classes with Unity player loop scheduling
• manage nested lifetime scopes for scenes and async flows
• use async entry points with UniTask in Unity
• inject dependencies into Unity ECS systems

When to choose

• you are building a Unity game or app and want fast, allocation-free DI
• you need plain C# entry points instead of MonoBehaviour-heavy control flow
• performance and GC pressure matter (e.g., mobile or VR titles)
• you want flexible nested lifetime scopes tied to scene lifecycles

When to avoid

• your project is not Unity-based (use a general .NET DI container instead)
• you need a DI container for server-side or non-game .NET applications
• you rely on features VContainer deliberately omits to keep the API simple
