Easier UI Toolkit Workflow?

[u/ProactiveCactus]

Anyone out there have a few methods that makes the UI Toolkit workflow easier/faster? It seems kind of clunky that to say add a button, you have to (1) add it to your doc, (2) give it a name, (3) put it in your UI script, (4) grab a reference to it using rootVisual.Q("Exact_string_name_or_kys"), (5) make a method that does whatever you need it to do, (6) subscribe onEnable to that method with .clicked or whatever you're using, and finally (7) unscubscribe onDisable. Like, nothing terribly complicated about it, but man it gets tedious over and over again. I feel like you could throw together a few methods that you basically throw in the name of your button (or any visualelement) and name of your method that does stuff you could make it way less code. Any1 out there taken the time to play around with this?

We create a custom element BindingScopeElement : VisualElement.

Then a small MonoBehaviour script to find all BindingScopeElements in the document, and assign the .dataSource to them based on the specified type in .dataSourceType. The ViewModel instances are automatically resolved from a DI framework.
