class in UnityEngine
/
Inherits from:Object

Implemented in:UnityEngine.CoreModule
Shader scripts used for all rendering.
Most of the advanced rendering is controlled via Material class. Shader class is mostly
used just to check whether a shader can run on the user's hardware (isSupported property), setting up
global shader properties and keywords, and finding shaders by name (Find method).
