Available integrations

Unreal Engine

Live coding

Starting with Unreal Engine 4.22, Live++ is deeply integrated into the engine itself and uses the Unreal Build Tool.

While this is available to every Unreal Engine 4 and Unreal Engine 5 developer out of the box, it is still possible to use the vanilla Live++ version with any version of Unreal Engine if you prefer, as this has a few benefits.
