With text styles, you can quickly change the look of your Unity TextMeshPro Texts and game UI, even without having to change anything in your prefabs. Plus, you will see how you can use custom fonts, colors and font sizes in your Text Mesh Pro Style Sheets, and the changes will update immediatly wherever you used them in your UI!
This is a workflow I learned to love while working on printed media in Adobe InDesign and I hope you will start using it in your current and future projects, too!
