# Installation Guide

> How to install the PlayFlow Unity SDK.

You can install the PlayFlow Unity SDK directly from the Unity Package Manager using a Git URL. This is the recommended method as it makes updates easier.

## Prerequisites

* **Git** installed on your machine and available on your `PATH`. Unity's Package Manager shells out to Git for git-URL installs, and the install fails silently if Git is missing.
* A **supported Unity version**. Check the version matrix in the [SDK repository README](https://github.com/PlayFlowCloud/PlayFlow-Multiplayer-Unity-SDK).

## Installing from Git URL

To install the PlayFlow Multiplayer Unity SDK, follow these steps, which are also available on our official [GitHub repository](https://github.com/PlayFlowCloud/PlayFlow-Multiplayer-Unity-SDK).

1. In your Unity project, open the Package Manager by navigating to **Window > Package Manager**.
2. Click the **`+`** button in the top-left corner of the Package Manager window.
3. Select **"Add package from git URL..."** from the dropdown menu.
4. Enter the following URL in the text field:
   ```
   https://github.com/PlayFlowCloud/PlayFlow-Multiplayer-Unity-SDK.git
   ```
5. Click **Add**.

Unity will now download and install the package and its dependencies into your project.

<Tip>
  The URL above tracks the tip of the default branch. For reproducible builds, pin a specific release by appending `#<version-tag>` to the URL (for example, `...PlayFlow-Multiplayer-Unity-SDK.git#v1.0.0`). Browse available tags on the [repository's releases page](https://github.com/PlayFlowCloud/PlayFlow-Multiplayer-Unity-SDK/releases).
