**Installing Unity Hub**

Unity Hub is a container application used to store and access our Unity Projects.
You can download and install it `here <https://unity.com/download>`_.

From here, do the following:

1. Create a Unity account.

2. Install a Delsys API compatible Unity Editor(see :ref:`troubleshooting`) for details.

    * A list of all the currently supported releases can be found `here <https://unity.com/releases/editor/qa/lts-releases?major_version=&minor_version=&version=&page=1>`_. However, not all releases will work with the API. 
.. warning::
    Make sure to install the "Android Build Support" module, Windows Build Support (IL2CPP), and Visual Studio (if you do not already have it) alongside the editor install. You will need these later.


3. The installation is now complete. You will see how to create a new project in :ref:`install_to_new`.
