It offers a UI for designers and generates code for developers.he Charon Unity Plugin is a full data-driven design workflow embedded in the Unity Editor. It gives you:A structured game database — one organized place for all your items, characters, quests, and abilities, with enforced relationships between themA visual editor that opens from the Unity menu and runs in your browser — no external tools, no switching contextA C# code generator that turns your schema into type-safe classes, so your code reads hero.Stats.Hp instead of (float)data["stats"]["hp"]Designers own the data.
