    Specs - Parallel ECS (by amethyst)

  • Fair enough on leaving parts up to other code instead of the library. I started my ECS with the idea of optimized storage (eg hash maps for sparse components) and indexing (which is why formal Not helps a lot, but indeed Maybe is only sugar for less code). I really liked this Rust ECS which also does parallelization, which makes it important for the ECS to also know which order the systems execute in, and their dependencies on each other (something I started doing but never finished): https://github.com/amethyst/specs
