Getting Started

To get started with Embedded Browser, you should install it on your machine. See below for the version that we are using!

Download Unity Editor

2019.8.4f1      Unity Hub    |    Editor (Win)     |    Editor (Mac)

...or click here to install directly if you already have Unity Hub!


Installation Walkthrough

There are two ways to install Unity on your machine: via Unity Hub or standalone installation.

Unity Hub

Installing through Unity Hub is the most recommended method as it is simple and straightforward!

You need to make sure that you have Unity Hub installed already on your machine to proceed.

Open Unity Hub →  Navigate to the Installs tab on the left →  Click on Add button to add the version of Unity Editor that you need.

Unity Hub

Select the version that you need (2019.4.8f1) →  Click next.

Unity version select

Now select all the modules that you need.

Since we are developing for both mobile and PC version, go ahead and check Android Build Support, Universal Windows Platform Build Support, and Windows Build Support.

We highly recommend you to also install Microsoft Visual Studio Community. Visual Studio is an integrated development environment (IDE) that most people use when developing in Unity. It has been integrated directly into Unity to provide you with an easy and fast access when you need to code.

When you're done, click next.

Check the box I have read and agree... and click next. (Feel free to read the EULA given in the link :D )

Do the same thing with the Android EULA and then press Done.

Wait until the installation finishes. This may take several minutes to several hours, depending on which module(s) you have chosen.

And... you're done!

Standalone Installation

The standalone installation is typically used when you can't find the Unity version you need since it might already been replaced by a new version or when there are issues with installing using the Unity Hub. This includes downloading and executable installer (.exe), installing, and locating on Unity Hub.

Unity Archive Download.

You need to have Unity Hub already installed on your machine.
