Assembly Definitions, Explained

This week you can learn about Assembly Definitions, which are a Unity Construct to create C# Projects within your game's "Solution". This allows Unity to determine which scripts needs to be compiled after making a change, instead of naively recompiling the entire project. Compiling fewer scripts lets you get back into the editor faster after making code changes!
