Hello! I was interested in building the plugin on Linux, I heard it might be possible, and was curious if there was a guide out there on how to do that? I apologize for the very basic question.
Thank you!
We don’t officially support Linux yet, but last time I tried it, it did build and run successfully. The developer setup instructions should get you started:
# Overview
This is a summary of the setup and workflows for developers who want to modify the Cesium for Unity plugin. If you just want to use Cesium for Unity in your own applications, see the main [README](../README.md).
## :computer: Building Cesium for Unity
### Prerequisites
* CMake v3.15 or later (the latest version is recommended)
* [.NET SDK v6.0 or later](https://dotnet.microsoft.com/en-us/download/dotnet/6.0)
* If you're using Visual Studio, you need Visual Studio 2022.
* Unity 2021.3+ (the latest version of the Unity 2021.3 LTS release is recommended)
* On Windows, support for long file paths must be enabled, or you are likely to see build errors. See [Maximum Path Length Limitation](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/fileio/maximum-file-path-limitation?tabs=registry#enable-long-paths-in-windows-10-version-1607-and-later).
The built Cesium for Unity Assembly will run on much older versions of .NET, including the version of Mono included in Unity. However, these very recent versions are required for the C#<->C++ interop code generator (Reinterop).
To make sure things are set up correctly, open a command-prompt (PowerShell is a good choice on Windows) and run:
* `dotnet --version` and verify that it reports 6.0 or later
* `cmake --version` and verify that it reports 3.15 or later

Let us know if you run into problems.

Yes, I was able to get it built and running, thank you!
