I am curious about Unreal Verse, I hope there's a book or tutorial included. It's not on the official UE5 documentation page. https://forums.unrealengine.com/t/verse-the-new-unreal-scrip...

I'm a bit vague on what this is, is this apart of UE5 ? Is it a side project ?

My main problem with UE is C++, I don't want to even try to download files or read json in a blueprint.
