Smarter Localization with Unity: Strings, Assets, and UI Toolkit
Overview: 
Localization is essential to making your game resonate with global audiences, and Unity’s Localization package provides powerful tools to streamline the process. In this webinar, we’ll showcase the new integration with the UI Toolkit and demonstrate how you can easily localize text and assets while using this modern, flexible UI framework to build polished interfaces.
While the session emphasizes the new UI Toolkit integration, the techniques we explore are flexible and can also be applied to UGUI and TextMesh Pro. This makes the workflow adaptable to projects at any stage of development or using any UI approach.
We’ll dive deep into using Smart Strings for managing static and dynamic text, highlighting tools like persistent variables for reusable, context-aware localization. Lastly, we’ll explore strategies to optimize localized asset loading, ensuring fast, seamless performance, regardless of language or audience.
Session Objectives: 
Discover the new UI Toolkit integration with Unity’s Localization package and learn how it simplifies localizing modern UI components.
