C# Attributes are a powerful tool for customizing and extending the behavior of your code, especially in game development where performance and clarity matter most. In this video, we explore attributes that can elevate your projects to the next level. From controlling memory layouts with `[StructLayout]` and `[FieldOffset]`, to ensuring robust runtime behavior with `[NotNull]` and `[UsedImplicitly]`, this guide dives into practical use cases for both performance optimization and tooling enhancements. Whether you're working with Unity, creating custom editors, or tackling advanced interop scenarios, these attributes will help you write cleaner, faster, and more efficient code.
