So I built FludeX.</p> <p>A few things I focused on:<br> • Controls are grouped into widgets, widgets into pages — keeps things organized when you have a lot of debug controls<br> • Fluent API — describe your debug controls in code, no manual view creation<br> • Built on AppUI, so it looks and feels native on device<br> • Extensible — custom widgets, custom modules, inject into existing tabs<br> • Widget library is easy to extend — add new widget types without modifying the core UIToolkit only, no legacy UI system dependency</p> <p>Ships with an Overview module for system and runtime diagnostics, a Playground module for cheats and feature flags, and 8 samples. </p> <p>Console module is next.</p> <p><a href="https://u3d.as/3TW4" rel="noopener noreferrer">Asset Store</a> · <a href="https://fludex.dev/guide/" rel="noopener noreferrer">Documentation</a> · <a href="https://fludex.dev/demo.html" rel="noopener noreferrer">WebGL Demo</a></p> gamedev debug unity3d tools
