What is in this repo?

This repository includes samples, documentation and supporting scripts. The core source code for the SDK is not part of this repository.

The supporting scripts are Unity components and shaders that extend or build on-top of the SDK. Because of their usefulness, the supporting scripts are also included in the SDK package.

The version of the supporting scripts in the repository reflects the latest version of the SDK.

Contributions to the sample project, documentation, or supporting scripts are welcome, and where applicable, approved changes will be included in the next release of the SDK. Refer to the Contribution Process for more details.
