bootstrapping

To sequence ordered asynchronous startup phases in Unity, implement IBootstrapPhase with Order, Name, IsEnabled, and ExecuteAsync properties. The BootstrapOrchestrator sorts these phases and runs them sequentially for deterministic initialization.

Managing Unity application initialization order is best handled by phase-based bootstrapping, which applies an ordered, cancellable pipeline to tasks like Steam platform services, localization, and save data loading, removing ad-hoc sequencing issues.

Yes, you can disable or reorder initialization tasks during Unity startup by adjusting the IsEnabled and Order properties on individual bootstrap phases. This makes adding, disabling, or reordering startup work straightforward and observable.

To register custom bootstrap phases using dependency injection in Unity, derive a new class from the provided base phase, assign its Order, and register it in ProjectLifetimeScope so the BootstrapOrchestrator runs it during startup.

Yes, phase-based Unity startup orchestration supports cleanup by disposing of disposable phases on shutdown. The orchestrator executes phases sequentially during initialization and safely handles disposable phase cleanup when the application terminates.
