Svelto ECS 3.0 Internals: profiling the Entity Collection
2020-05-17
Previously, in Svelto.ECS, it was possible to query entity components directly as a managed array, which would have resulted in the fastest way to iterate over the components in c#. Since Svelto.ECS 3.0 and because now the framework supports natively native memory as well, I decided to remove this possibilityRead More →
Svelto ECS 3.0 Internals: Support Native Memory Natively
2020-05-06
With the approaching third major release, Svelto.ECS internals have been overhauled to support Burst and native memory (among other features that I will discuss in different articles).

Svelto MiniExamples: GUI and Services Layer with Unity
2019-07-30
Introduction: The Svelto.ECS methods designed to implement ECS based GUIs are simple and powerful, following the fundamental principles around the whole Svelto implementation. Their design doesn’t involve use of callbacks, as it relies on the power of Svelto.Tasks (but you can achieve similar results with other patterns like async/await) andRead More →
