JankyUI

Unity Immediate Mode GUI Wrapper

JankyUI is a Unity Immediate Mode GUI Wrapper for quickly writing User Interfaces from code.

Why?

Unity's new UI System is great, but creating Test UIs from Code with it is not.
Unity's Immediate Mode GUI is great for Code-Side UI, but writing the code to use it is not.

JankyUI Provides a Way of Writing Immediate Mode GUI without touching any of the GUI/GUILayout Functions.

Without worrying about UI Callbacks/Code,

Create This:

From This:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<JankyUI xmlns='janky://Schema/v1'>
  <Window width='400' height='300' title='Window Title' on-mouse-over='@MouseState'>
    <Group type='vertical'>
      <Group type='horizontal'>
        <Group type='vertical' stretch='none'>
          <Label text='A Label' />
          <Label text='Another Label' />
        </Group>
        <Group type='vertical' stretch='horizontal'>
          <Textbox text='@BoundTextbox' stretch='horizontal' />
          <Textbox text='@AnotherBoundTextbox' stretch='horizontal' />
        </Group>
      </Group>
      <Label text='A Big Text Area:' stretch='horizontal' />
      <Textbox type='multiline' stretch='both' text='@BigBoundText' />
      <Group type='horizontal' stretch='horizontal' >
        <Space />
        <Button name='Button1' text='A Button' on-click='@Click' />
        <Button name='Button2' text='Another Button' on-click='@Click' />
      </Group>
    </Group>
  </Window>
