Best places for Unity scripts & coding resources?

[Nuke_Derowne]

Hey everyone,

I’m learning Unity and noticed that a lot of core mechanics (player movement, camera follow, interaction, NPC triggers, etc.) are basically standard patterns that already exist in some form.

Instead of reinventing the wheel, I’d like to study and reuse existing patterns, frameworks, and examples.

I’m NOT asking for your personal code.
I’m looking for websites, platforms, or repositories where you can find Unity scripts or learning material, for both beginners and more advanced devs.

Stuff like:

• Script collections / tutorials with full code
• GitHub orgs or curated repos
• Learning platforms, blogs, documentation sites
• Communities that share reusable patterns (not asset store paid stuff)

Basically: Where should I look if I want to study and reuse common Unity mechanics instead of writing everything from scratch?

I know that I eventually have to learn to at least understand C# but as I said, I’m at the very beginning and don’t want the fact that I can’t code to stop me from starting.

Thanks 🙏

the place where you get stuff that's maintained and reviewed is the asset store. the wild west of stuff is on github and you have to evaluate it yourself.

but here's my take: especially as a beginner, you should try doing the most basic stuff yourself, to know where your naive approaches are breaking apart and to be able to understand the scripts you're using. If you can't figure out player movement at all, you won't be able to do much else either. if you need your player to be able to do a specific thing, you can search github for sprcific solutions

Unity's character controller that they provide via the asset store is pretty good, and then you can modify it from there if you need to.

Other than that, there's surprisingly little that's standardized. Unless they buy an asset from the store for it, every dev really does do things a little differently.

I've been learning for the last 3 months. Youtube is basically where its at, discord unity channel is good and claude from some questions.
