# Unity ECS Patterns

Keep a Unity game fast with thousands of things on screen

## What this does

A Unity game slows down once there are a lot of things in the world at once. This covers Unity's Entity Component System with DOTS, Jobs and Burst, which is the data-oriented way of building for that scale. Reach for it when performance is the constraint, or when you are starting a game that will hold many entities.

### Top 3 things it does for you

- Structure a game around data instead of objects
- Move work into Jobs and Burst
- Handle very large entity counts

## Questions

### Is Unity ECS Patterns safe to install?

AIR scanned this exact version of Unity ECS Patterns and flagged nothing. AIR's verdict: safe. The verdict is named by the content that was read, at commit be57c0b2e3c0, so it cannot drift onto a version nobody scanned. The full report is at https://airmarket.ai/security/unity-ecs-patterns.

### How do I install Unity ECS Patterns?

Open https://airmarket.ai/app/unity-ecs-patterns on Air Market and use the install action: Air Market hands Claude a prompt naming this exact skill, and Claude sets it up. Source, pinned to the exact commit this listing describes: https://github.com/wshobson/agents/tree/be57c0b2e3c05c528ca6132b87410b385718775f/plugins/game-development/skills/unity-ecs-patterns. Install from that link, not the branch.
