# Setup

## Prerequisites

* Essential Kit imported into the project from My Assets section of Package Manager
* No platform-specific requirements - Native UI works out of the box on iOS and Android

## Setup Checklist

1. Open **Essential Kit Settings** (`Window > Voxel Busters > Essential Kit > Open Settings`), switch to the **Services** tab, and enable **Native UI**
2. Changes are saved automatically. If you use source control, commit the updated `Resources/EssentialKitSettings.asset` file

### Configuration Reference

| Setting    | Platform | Required? | Notes                                                             |
| ---------- | -------- | --------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Is Enabled | All      | Yes       | Toggles Native UI in builds; disabling strips related native code |

{% hint style="info" %}
Native UI requires minimal configuration since it primarily uses platform-standard components. The main setup is just enabling the feature.
{% endhint %}

### Platform-Specific Behavior

**iOS:**

* Uses native UIAlertController for alert dialogs
* Uses UIDatePicker for date/time selection
* Automatically matches iOS Human Interface Guidelines
* Dialogs appear with system animations and styling

**Android:**

* Uses native AlertDialog with Material Design styling
* Uses DatePicker and TimePicker components
* Adapts to different Android versions and manufacturer customizations
* Respects system theme (light/dark mode)

Need a working baseline? Run the sample at `Assets/Plugins/VoxelBusters/EssentialKit/Examples/Scenes/NativeUIDemo.unity` to confirm your setup before wiring Native UI into production screens.
