MVVM-style data-binding system for Unity.
Unity-Weld is a library for Unity 5+ that enables two-way data binding between Unity UI widgets and game/business logic code. This reduces boiler-plate code that would otherwise be necessary for things like updating the UI when a property changes, removes the need for messy links between objects in the scene that can be broken easily, and allows easier unit testing of code by providing a layer of abstraction between the UI and your core logic code.
A series of articles on Unity Weld has been published on What Could Possibly Go Wrong.
Example Unity project can be found here: https://github.com/Real-Serious-Games/Unity-Weld-Examples.
To install Unity-Weld in a new or existing Unity project:
