# Unity Hub Native .Net 
**UnityHubNative.Net** is a lightweight C#/Avalonia alternative to the unnecessarily heavy official Unity Hub, built using [Avalonia](https://avaloniaui.net). This means that, instead of using heavy web components like the official Electron hub, it uses native GUI components on all platforms.
> This project is ***heavily*** inspired by [UnityHubNative](https://github.com/Ravbug/UnityHubNative). Any resemblance is a direct copying of the original project's style. This project aims to bring the project onto the modern UI framrwork of Avalonia in the already-familiar C# language from Unity developers for Unity developers.
It launches many times faster, uses far less memory and CPU, and is a fraction of the total size of the official Unity Hub.
