It's pretty common to avoid macros as they can seem too magical a lot of the time. And with traits, there's experiments like miniserde which specifically avoid monomorphization overhead. I also see people who want to avoid having lots of dependencies relatively often.

Right now, the next step would be to try to reimplement miniserde with venial, and publish benchmarks.

The only downside is compile time bloat.
Serde generates heaps and heaps of generic code. This gets optimized away to be very efficient, but it can be quite cumbersome.
Ever tried working on a crate with hundreds or thousands of de/serializable types? Compile times shoot through the roof really quickly.
The maintainer of serde also created `miniserde` [1], which uses dynamic dispatch and can have 4x compile time improvements.
Due to Rusts lack of orphan instances you really depend on a pervasive standard for serializiation which is used by all libraries, so the ecosystem is really locked in to serde by now.

Hi! Can't help but post a link to my plugin here: https://github.com/mvlabat/bevy_egui
Afaik, there are no plans to upstream Egui integration to Bevy, but if anyone needs an immediate mode UI, this plugin does the job (and it already supports Bevy 0.9).

It's much more mature than our UI solution (which is bevy_egui exists and is wildly popular). And for things like calculators and todo lists, there's no complex internal logic where you really want the tools that Bevy provides.

Oh, forgot to mention, egui is used for most of the gui features via bevy_egui, it's pretty nice, very easy to use (I've been using other immediate gui before).

For a GUI, you might consider egui which has an integration for bevy.

Bevy engine has also an editor UI plan like godot,but it's just the beginning. There is a Egui integration(bevy_egui) for the Bevy game engine which you can try.

What are some alternatives?
