🔄 Object Pooling Plugin (Unity)

High-performance pooling tool for Unity

---

🧩 Overview

The Object Pooling Plugin is a clean, modular and extensible runtime pooling system designed to reduce allocations and boost performance in Unity.
It features both a ScriptableObject-based workflow and a generic key-driven pool manager, making it suitable for gameplay systems, tools, UI, and scalable frameworks.

🎯 Designed for readability, extensibility, and real production use, with clean architecture and minimal overhead.

🚀 Main Features

• ScriptableObject-Based Pool Setup: Define pools directly from the inspector.
• Automatic Runtime Instantiation: Preload objects at startup with zero runtime allocations.
• IPoolable Interface: Custom activation/deactivation logic for pooled objects.
• Generic ObjectPoolManager: Key-based retrieval supporting any type.
• Singleton Architecture: Lightweight global access with self-validation.
• Example Scene Included: Complete demo with keyboard-controlled spawning.
