Only GeneticSharp:
install-package GeneticSharpGeneticSharp and extensions (TSP, AutoConfig, Bitmap equality, Equality equation, Equation solver, Function builder, etc):
install-package GeneticSharp.ExtensionsYou should use the UnityNuGet to install GeneticSharp directly from NuGet.
Or you can use the latest GeneticSharp.unitypackage available on our release page.
To install previous version that support .NET Standard 2.0 and .NET Framework 4.6.2:
install-package GeneticSharp -Version 2.6.0To install previous version that support .NET Framework 3.5:
install-package GeneticSharp -Version 1.2.0If you want to run the console, GTK# and Unity samples, just fork this repository and follow the instruction from our setup page wiki.
An easy way to run the Unity Samples, if you have a Android device, is download it from Google Play.
