Unity's Package Manager is great at distributing packages — but it's not great at letting you see what changed between versions, compare code, or maintain customizations across updates.
We built this mirror because we kept running into the same problems:
- No easy way to diff two versions of a package
- Changelogs that range from "works of art" (Input System) to entirely empty
- Customizing a package meant losing the ability to update it
Every package here is publicly available through UPM — we just make it accessible on GitHub so you can use the tools you already know.
- Fork the package repository you need
- Create a branch for your modifications
- When Unity releases a new version, the mirror updates automatically
- Rebase your branch onto the new version
This gives you full customization freedom while keeping a clean upgrade path.
