Unfortunately, it's not quite that simple. It also has a large number of concepts and configuration knobs contributing to its learning curve. I've seen many programmers get frustrated with Addressables, then end up rolling their own. I would like to save you the time of doing that because the good news is that Addressables can take you most of the way there, and this manual can help you get there. What does Addressables do? The Addressables system's main purpose is to enable you to decouple how your code loads assets from how it builds and deploys them: you specify addresses for assets, addresses can be configured to be located at local or remote paths, then your code loads whatever is at that address. You don't have to rewrite your code, just rewire your config. What does Addressables NOT do? Addressables does NOT provide a server hosting solution for assets. It is only able to provide configuration that maps an asset's location to the asset it","default_branch":null,"files":null,"tree":[],"storefront":"/r/mikerochip","claimed":false,"request_supported":{"post":"https://gitbuyer.com/r/mikerochip/addressables-training-manual/request-supported","requests":0},"note":"indexed from public GitHub; nothing is for sale on this page.
