Svelto ECS 3.4 internals: How to run ECS systems on the GPU
Does your ECS framework run systems on GPU? Svelto surely does :ORead More →
Introduction Svelto.ECS is a platform-agnostic C# Entity-Component-System framework. You can catch its flexibility in action through the Svelto mini-examples, with applications written for Unity, .Net, SDL and Stride Engine. When using Svelto.ECS with Unity, the user has the option to take advantage of the entire DOTS suite or specific parts,Read More →
Introduction My Xmas gift to the Svelto Community this year was the complete rewrite of the Survival Svelto.ECS MiniExample. This example is used as a reference by all newcomers because it’s the simplest to digest for people who are not in the ECS mentality and still think in terms ofRead More →
Introduction This long-due article will conclude the series on Entity Component System Code Design and will explore the idea of Inversion of Control layers applied to ECS. I design code in terms of layers for quite some time now and, in fact, I have hinted at it several times inRead More →
2022 Update I leave this article up for historical purposes, but almost everything written here is not recommended anymore. The publisher/consumer tool especially was designed to let separate EnginesRoots communicate with each other in a thread-safe way. Any other use of it is confirmed to be an abuse, including theRead More →
Welcome back! It’s some time that Svelto ECS 2.8 is actually ready, as it has been used at Freejam for quite a while now (yep, we are developing Robocraft Experiments with it) and as the list of tasks for SECS 2.9 is growing, it was time to write this articleRead More →
Note: this article is now outdated. The new version is found at: https://www.sebaslab.com/the-new-svelto-ecs-survival-mini-example/ Introduction Lately I have been discussing Svelto.ECS extensively with several, more or less experienced, programmers. I gathered a lot of feedback and took a lot of notes that I will be using as starting point for myRead More →
Note: this article is not maintained. The mini example Doofuses has a third and final iteration for a long time now and it is what all my new articles refer to when talking about this example. Iteration 3 enhances the code using Burst and Jobs. After finishing writing my previousRead More →
Premise In this article, I am going to explain why I believe the Entity Component System design is a great paradigm to develop simpler to maintain (and therefore less expensive) codebases and also explore the idea to formalise best practices through the application of the SOLID principles, which, at glance,Read More →
