Bevy is an open‑source, data‑driven game engine and application framework written in Rust. It provides a fast, parallel ECS, 2D/3D rendering, UI, and extensible pipelines.

Use cases

• Create 2D platformer or arcade games with Rust.
• Build 3D simulations or visualizations that run on desktop and web.
• Develop cross‑platform games for Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, Android, and WebAssembly.
• Prototype game mechanics quickly using the ECS and modular plugins.
• Implement custom shaders and render pipelines for advanced graphics effects.
• Design UI layouts for games using the built‑in ECS‑driven UI framework.

When to choose

• You want a modern engine written in Rust with strong safety guarantees.
• You need a highly parallel, data‑oriented architecture for performance.
• You require cross‑platform support, including WebAssembly, without a separate editor.
• You prefer a modular system where you can add or replace only the parts you need.

When to avoid

• You need a mature, feature‑complete engine with a visual editor like Unity or Unreal.
• Your project depends on extensive third‑party asset pipelines not yet supported by Bevy.
• You require long‑term stable APIs without frequent breaking changes.
