See if you can build this dll and have unity recognize it on mac

You didn’t link anything besides the documentation on the managed plugins.
Which dll did you want me to build?
edit: never mind I saw there is a tutorial towards the bottom of the page

There are steps on that page for making a dll in msvc, look at the `Create a DLL with Visual Studio` section. Just make that super simple dll and see if unity recognizes it as a managed dll
