Preface

This book is dedicated to beginners of the Next-Gen UI kit, also known as NGUI. You may have heard about this Unity 3D plugin; it is popular amongst developers for its easy-to-use and effective WYSIWYG workflow.

NGUI provides built-in components and scripts to create beautiful user interfaces for your projects, with most of the work happening inside the editor.

Through this book, you will gather the necessary knowledge to create interesting user interfaces. The seven chapters of this book are practical and will guide you through the creation of both a main menu and a 2D game.
