# Objective
- `Rotation2d` is a very long name for a commonly used type.
## Solution
- Rename it to `Rot2` to match `glam`'s naming convention (e.g. `Vec2`)
I ran a poll, and `Rot2` was the favorite of the candidate names.
This is not actually a breaking change, since `Rotation2d` has not been
shipped yet.

# Objective
- Due to coherency, it was previously not possible to implement
`Bounded3d` for `Extrusion<MyCustomPrimitive>`. This PR fixes that.
## Solution
- Added a new trait `BoundedExtrusion: Primitive2d + Bounded2d` which
provides functions for bounding boxes and spheres of extrusions of 2D
primitives.
- Changed all implementations of `Bounded3d for Extrusion<T>` to
`BoundedExtrusion for T`
- Implemented `Bounded3d for Extrusion<T: BoundedExtrusion>`
- Removed the `extrusion_bounding_box` and `extrusion_bounding_sphere`
functions and used them as default implementations in `BoundedExtrusion`
## Testing
- This PR does not change any implementations

# Objective
Fill the gap in this functionality by implementing it for `Rotation2d`.
We have this already for `Quat` in addition to the direction types.
## Solution
`bevy_math::sampling` now contains an implementation of
`Distribution<Rotation2d>` for `Standard`, along with the associated
convenience implementation `Rotation2d: FromRng`, which allows syntax
like this for creating a random rotation:
```rust
// With `FromRng`:
let rotation = Rotation2d::from_rng(rng);
// With `rand::random`:
let another_rotation: Rotation2d = random();
// With `Rng::gen`:
let yet_another_rotation: Rotation2d = rng.gen();
```
I also cleaned up the documentation a little bit, seeding the `Rng`s
instead of building them from entropy, along with adding a handful of
inline directives.
# Objective
- Implement `Bounded3d` for some `Extrusion<T>`
- Provide methods to calculate `Aabb3d`s and `BoundingSphere`s for any
extrusion with a `Bounded2d` base shape
## Solution
- Implemented `Bounded3d` for all 2D `bevy_math` primitives with the
exception of `Plane2d`. As far as I can see, `Plane2d` is pretty much a
line? and I think it is very unintuitive to extrude a plane and get a
plane as a result.
- Add `extrusion_bounding_box` and `extrusion_bounding_sphere`. These
are not always used internally since there are faster methods for
specific extrusions. Both of them produce the optimal result within
precision limits though.
## Testing
- Bounds for extrusions are tested within the same module. All unique
implementations are tested.
- The correctness was validated visually aswell.

# Objective
Filling a hole in the API: Previously, there was no particularly
ergonomic way to go from, e.g., a pair of directions to the rotation
that links them.
## Solution
We introduce a small suite of API methods to `Dir2` to address this:
```rust
/// Get the rotation that rotates this direction to `other`.
pub fn rotation_to(self, other: Self) -> Rotation2d { //... }
/// Get the rotation that rotates `other` to this direction.
pub fn rotation_from(self, other: Self) -> Rotation2d { //... }
/// Get the rotation that rotates the X-axis to this direction.
pub fn rotation_from_x(self) -> Rotation2d { //... }
/// Get the rotation that rotates this direction to the X-axis.
pub fn rotation_to_x(self) -> Rotation2d { //... }
/// Get the rotation that rotates this direction to the Y-axis.
pub fn rotation_from_y(self) -> Rotation2d { //... }
/// Get the rotation that rotates the Y-axis to this direction.
pub fn rotation_to_y(self) -> Rotation2d { //... }
```
I also removed some language from the `Rotation2d` docs that is
misleading: the radian and angle conversion functions are already clear
about which angles they spit out, and `Rotation2d` itself doesn't have
any bounds on angles or anything.
# Objective
Implements #13647
## Solution
Created two enums, CompassQuadrant and CompassOctant inside compass.rs
with impls To and From Dir2. Used dir.to_angle().to_degrees() and
matched against the resulting value. I could have skipped to_degrees()
and matched against the radian value, but I thought this was more
readable. I'm probably wrong lol.
## Testing
Tested various dirs to compass variations.

# Objective
When working on `leafwing-input-manager` and in my games, I've found
these compass directions to be both clear and useful when attempting to
describe angles in 2 dimensions.
This was directly used when mapping gamepad inputs into 4-way movement
as a virtual dpad, and I expect other uses are common in games.
## Solution
- Add constants corresponding to the 4 cardinal and 4 semi-cardinal
directions.
## Testing
- I've validated the quadrants of each of the directions through
self-review.

Fixes#13535.

I implemented `Reflect` for close to all math types now, except for some
types that it would cause issues (like some boxed types).

# Objective
The `ConicalFrustum` primitive should support meshing.
## Solution
Implement meshing for the `ConicalFrustum` primitive. The implementation
is nearly identical to `Cylinder` meshing, but supports two radii.
The default conical frustum is equivalent to a cone with a height of 1
and a radius of 0.5, truncated at half-height.
# Objective

## Solution
I've rebased on main to fix the merge conflicts. ~~Not quite ready to

I am unsure if this needs changing, so let me know if I need to change
anything else.
# Objective
Fixes#13461.
## Solution
I applied the changes as suggested in the issue, and updated the doc
comments accordingly
## Testing
I don't think this needs too much testing, but there are no `cargo test`
failures.
# Objective
Add random sampling for the `Annulus` primitive. This is part of ongoing
work to bring the various `bevy_math` primitives to feature parity.
## Solution
`Annulus` implements `ShapeSample`. Boundary sampling is implemented in
the obvious way, and interior sampling works exactly as in the
implementation for `Circle`, using the fact that the square of the
radius should be taken uniformly from between r^2 and R^2, where r and R
are the inner and outer radii respectively.
## Testing
I generated a bunch of random points and rendered them. Here's 1000
points on the interior of the default annulus:
<img width="1440" alt="Screenshot 2024-05-22 at 8 01 34 AM"
src="https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/2975848/19c31bb0-edba-477f-b247-2b12d854afae">
This looks kind of weird around the edges, but I verified that they're
all actually inside the annulus, so I assume it has to do with the fact
that the rendered circles have some radius.
Stolen from #12835.
# Objective
Sometimes you want to sample a whole bunch of points from a shape
instead of just one. You can write your own loop to do this, but it's
really more idiomatic to use a `rand`
[`Distribution`](https://docs.rs/rand/latest/rand/distributions/trait.Distribution.html)
with the `sample_iter` method. Distributions also support other useful
things like mapping, and they are suitable as generic items for
consumption by other APIs.
## Solution
`ShapeSample` has been given two new automatic trait methods,
`interior_dist` and `boundary_dist`. They both have similar signatures
(recall that `Output` is the output type for `ShapeSample`):
```rust
fn interior_dist(self) -> impl Distribution<Self::Output>
where Self: Sized { //... }
```
These have default implementations which are powered by wrapper structs
`InteriorOf` and `BoundaryOf` that actually implement `Distribution` —
the implementations effectively just call `ShapeSample::sample_interior`
and `ShapeSample::sample_boundary` on the contained type.
The upshot is that this allows iteration as follows:
```rust
// Get an iterator over boundary points of a rectangle:
let rectangle = Rectangle::new(1.0, 2.0);
let boundary_iter = rectangle.boundary_dist().sample_iter(rng);
// Collect a bunch of boundary points at once:
let boundary_pts: Vec<Vec2> = boundary_iter.take(1000).collect();
```
Alternatively, you can use `InteriorOf`/`BoundaryOf` explicitly to
similar effect:
```rust
let boundary_pts: Vec<Vec2> = BoundaryOf(rectangle).sample_iter(rng).take(1000).collect();
```
---
## Changelog
- Added `InteriorOf` and `BoundaryOf` distribution wrapper structs in
`bevy_math::sampling::shape_sampling`.
- Added `interior_dist` and `boundary_dist` automatic trait methods to
`ShapeSample`.
- Made `shape_sampling` module public with explanatory documentation.
---
## Discussion
### Design choices
The main point of interest here is just the choice of `impl
Distribution` instead of explicitly using `InteriorOf`/`BoundaryOf`
return types for `interior_dist` and `boundary_dist`. The reason for
this choice is that it allows future optimizations for repeated sampling
— for example, instead of just wrapping the base type,
`interior_dist`/`boundary_dist` could construct auxiliary data that is
held over between sampling operations.
# Objective
- Fixes#13092.
## Solution
- Renamed the `inset()` method in `Rect`, `IRect` and `URect` to
`inflate()`.
- Added `EMPTY` constants to all `Rect` variants, represented by corners
with the maximum numerical values for each kind.
---
## Migration Guide
- Replace `Rect::inset()`, `IRect::inset()` and `URect::inset()` calls
with `inflate()`.
# Objective
Add interior and boundary sampling for the `Tetrahedron` primitive. This
is part of ongoing work to bring the primitives to parity with each
other in terms of their capabilities.
## Solution
`Tetrahedron` implements the `ShapeSample` trait. To support this, there
is a new public method `Tetrahedron::faces` which gets the faces of a
tetrahedron as `Triangle3d`s. There are more sophisticated ideas for
getting the faces we might want to consider in the future (e.g.
adjusting according to the orientation), but this method gives the most
mathematically straightforward answer, giving the faces the orientation
induced by the tetrahedron itself.
# Objective
Fixes#13189
## Solution
To add the reflect impls I needed to make all the struct fields pub. I
don't think there's any harm for these types, but just a note for
review.

# Objective
As was pointed out in #13183, `bevy_mikktspace` is missing it's msrv
from it `Cargo.toml`. This promted me to check the msrv of every
`bevy_*` crate. Closes#13183.
## Solution
- Call `cargo check` with different rust versions on every bevy crate
until it doesn't complain.
- Write down the rust version `cargo check` started working.
## Testing
- Install `cargo-msrv`.
- Run `cargo msrv verify`.
- Rejoice.
---
## Changelog
Every published bevy crate now specifies a MSRV. If your rust toolchain
isn't at least version `1.77.0` You'll likely not be able to compile
most of bevy.
## Migration Guide
If your rust toolchain is bellow version`1.77.0, update.
# Objective
The `Cone` primitive should support meshing.
## Solution
Implement meshing for the `Cone` primitive. The default cone has a
height of 1 and a base radius of 0.5, and is centered at the origin.
An issue with cone meshes is that the tip does not really have a normal
that works, even with duplicated vertices. This PR uses only a single
vertex for the tip, with a normal of zero; this results in an "invalid"
normal that gets ignored by the fragment shader. This seems to be the
only approach we have for perfectly smooth cones. For discussion on the
topic, see #10298 and #5891.
Another thing to note is that the cone uses polar coordinates for the
UVs:

This way, textures are applied as if looking at the cone from above:

# Objective
Sometimes it's nice to iterate over all the coordinate axes using
something like `Vec3::AXES`. This was not available for the
corresponding `Dir` types and now it is.
## Solution
We already have things like `Dir2::X`, `Dir3::Z` and so on, so I just
threw them in an array like the vector types do it. I also slightly
refactored the sphere gizmo code to use `Dir3::AXES` and operate on
directions instead of using `Dir3::new_unchecked`.
## Testing
I looked at the sphere in the `3d_gizmos` example and it seems to work,
so I assume I didn't break anything.
# Objective
- Adds a basic `Extrusion<T: Primitive2d>` shape, suggestion of #10572
## Solution
- Adds `Measured2d` and `Measured3d` traits for getting the
perimeter/area or area/volume of shapes. This allows implementing
`.volume()` and `.area()` for all extrusions `Extrusion<T: Primitive2d +
Measured2d>` within `bevy_math`
- All existing perimeter, area and volume implementations for primitves
have been moved into implementations of `Measured2d` and `Measured3d`
- Shapes should be extruded along the Z-axis since an extrusion of depth
`0.` should be equivalent in everything but name to the base shape
## Caviats
- I am not sure about the naming. `Extrusion<T>` could also be
`Prism<T>` and the `MeasuredNd` could also be something like
`MeasuredPrimitiveNd`. If you have any other suggestions, please fell
free to share them :)
## Future work
This PR adds a basic `Extrusion` shape and does not implement a lot of
things you might want it to. Some of the future possibilities include:
- [ ] bounding for extrusions
- [ ] making extrusions work with gizmos
- [ ] meshing

# Objective
- `README.md` is a common file that usually gives an overview of the
folder it is in.
- When on <https://crates.io>, `README.md` is rendered as the main
description.
- Many crates in this repository are lacking `README.md` files, which
makes it more difficult to understand their purpose.
<img width="1552" alt="image"
src="https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/59022059/78ebf91d-b0c4-4b18-9874-365d6310640f">
- There are also a few inconsistencies with `README.md` files that this
PR and its follow-ups intend to fix.
## Solution
- Create a `README.md` file for all crates that do not have one.
- This file only contains the title of the crate (underscores removed,
proper capitalization, acronyms expanded) and the <https://shields.io>
badges.
- Remove the `readme` field in `Cargo.toml` for `bevy` and
`bevy_reflect`.
- This field is redundant because [Cargo automatically detects
`README.md`
files](https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/manifest.html#the-readme-field).
The field is only there if you name it something else, like `INFO.md`.
- Fix capitalization of `bevy_utils`'s `README.md`.
- It was originally `Readme.md`, which is inconsistent with the rest of
the project.
- I created two commits renaming it to `README.md`, because Git appears
to be case-insensitive.
- Expand acronyms in title of `bevy_ptr` and `bevy_utils`.
- In the commit where I created all the new `README.md` files, I
preferred using expanded acronyms in the titles. (E.g. "Bevy Developer
Tools" instead of "Bevy Dev Tools".)
- This commit changes the title of existing `README.md` files to follow
the same scheme.
- I do not feel strongly about this change, please comment if you
disagree and I can revert it.
- Add <https://shields.io> badges to `bevy_time` and `bevy_transform`,
which are the only crates currently lacking them.
---
## Changelog
- Added `README.md` files to all crates missing it.
# Objective
- Update glam version requirement to latest version.
## Solution
- Updated `glam` version requirement from 0.25 to 0.27.
- Updated `encase` and `encase_derive_impl` version requirement from 0.7
to 0.8.
- Updated `hexasphere` version requirement from 10.0 to 12.0.
- Breaking changes from glam changelog:
- [0.26.0] Minimum Supported Rust Version bumped to 1.68.2 for impl
From<bool> for {f32,f64} support.
- [0.27.0] Changed implementation of vector fract method to match the
Rust implementation instead of the GLSL implementation, that is self -
self.trunc() instead of self - self.floor().
---
## Migration Guide
- When using `glam` exports, keep in mind that `vector` `fract()` method
now matches Rust implementation (that is `self - self.trunc()` instead
of `self - self.floor()`). If you want to use the GLSL implementation
you should now use `fract_gl()`.

# Objective
- People have reported bounding volumes being slower than their existing
solution because it doesn't use SIMD aligned types.

wherever possible
- Change some code to make it more likely SIMD operations are used.
---
## Changelog
- Use `Vec3A` for 3D bounding volumes and raycasts
## Migration Guide

from methods on them now return `Vec3A` instead of `Vec3`
# Objective
Adds a few extra `#[doc(alias)]` entries to the
`bevy_math::primitives::WindingOrder` enum and its variants to improve
searchability.
## Solution
- Add "Orientation" for `WindingOrder` itself
- Add "AntiClockwise" for `CounterClockwise` variant
- Add "Collinear" for `Invalid` variant
These alternate terms seem to be quite common, especially in the
contexts of rendering and collision-detection.

# Objective
Augment Bevy's random sampling capabilities by providing good tools for
producing random directions and rotations.
## Solution
The `rand` crate has a natural tool for providing `Distribution`s whose
output is a type that doesn't require any additional data to sample
values — namely,
[`Standard`](https://docs.rs/rand/latest/rand/distributions/struct.Standard.html).
Here, our existing `ShapeSample` implementations have been put to good
use in providing these, resulting in patterns like the following:
```rust
// Using thread-local rng
let random_direction1: Dir3 = random();
// Using an explicit rng
let random_direction2: Dir3 = rng.gen();
// Using an explicit rng coupled explicitly with Standard
let random_directions: Vec<Dir3> = rng.sample_iter(Standard).take(5).collect();
```
Furthermore, we have introduced a trait `FromRng` which provides sugar
for `rng.gen()` that is more namespace-friendly (in this author's
opinion):
```rust
let random_direction = Dir3::from_rng(rng);
```
The types this has been implemented for are `Dir2`, `Dir3`, `Dir3A`, and
`Quat`. Notably, `Quat` uses `glam`'s implementation rather than an
in-house one, and as a result, `bevy_math`'s "rand" feature now enables
that of `glam`.
---
## Changelog
- Created `standard` submodule in `sampling` to hold implementations and
other items related to the `Standard` distribution.
- "rand" feature of `bevy_math` now enables that of `glam`.
---
## Discussion
From a quick glance at `Quat`'s distribution implementation in `glam`, I
am a bit suspicious, since it is simple and doesn't match any algorithm
that I came across in my research. I will do a little more digging as a
follow-up to this and see if it's actually uniform (maybe even using
those tools I wrote — what a thrill).
As an aside, I'd also like to say that I think
[`Distribution`](https://docs.rs/rand/latest/rand/distributions/trait.Distribution.html)
is really, really good. It integrates with distributions provided
externally (e.g. in `rand` itself and its extensions) along with doing a
good job of isolating the source of randomness, so that output can be
reliably reproduced if need be. Finally, `Distribution::sample_iter` is
quite good for ergonomically acquiring lots of random values. At one
point I found myself writing traits to describe random sampling and
essentially reinvented this one. I just think it's good, and I think
it's worth centralizing around to a significant extent.

- #10572
There is no 3D primitive available for the common shape of a tetrahedron
(3-simplex).
## Solution
This PR introduces a new type to the existing math primitives:
- `Tetrahedron`: a polyhedron composed of four triangular faces, six
straight edges, and four vertices
---
## Changelog
### Added
- `Tetrahedron` primitive to the `bevy_math` crate
- `Tetrahedron` tests (`area`, `volume` methods)
- `impl_reflect!` declaration for `Tetrahedron` in the `bevy_reflect`
crate
# Objective
- There are several redundant imports in the tests and examples that are
not caught by CI because additional flags need to be passed.
## Solution
- Run `cargo check --workspace --tests` and `cargo check --workspace
--examples`, then fix all warnings.
- Add `test-check` to CI, which will be run in the check-compiles job.
This should catch future warnings for tests. Examples are already
checked, but I'm not yet sure why they weren't caught.
## Discussion
- Should the `--tests` and `--examples` flags be added to CI, so this is
caught in the future?
- If so, #12818 will need to be merged first. It was also a warning
raised by checking the examples, but I chose to split off into a
separate PR.

- Fixes #[12762](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/12762).
## Migration Guide
- `Quat` no longer implements `VectorSpace` as unit quaternions don't
actually form proper vector spaces. If you're absolutely certain that
what you're doing is correct, convert the `Quat` into a `Vec4` and
perform the operations before converting back.
# Objective
When I wrote #12747 I neglected to translate random samples from
triangles back to the point where they originated, so they would be
sampled near the origin instead of at the actual triangle location.
## Solution
Translate by the first vertex location so that the samples follow the
actual triangle.
# Objective
Previously, the `Point` trait, which abstracts all of the operations of
a real vector space, was sitting in the submodule of `bevy_math` for
cubic splines. However, the trait has broader applications than merely
cubic splines, and we should use it when possible to avoid code
duplication when performing vector operations.
## Solution
`Point` has been moved into a new submodule in `bevy_math` named
`common_traits`. Furthermore, it has been renamed to `VectorSpace`,
which is more descriptive, and an additional trait `NormedVectorSpace`
has been introduced to expand the API to cover situations involving
geometry in addition to algebra. Additionally, `VectorSpace` itself now
requires a `ZERO` constant and `Neg`. It also supports a `lerp` function
as an automatic trait method.
Here is what that looks like:
```rust
/// A type that supports the mathematical operations of a real vector space, irrespective of dimension.
/// In particular, this means that the implementing type supports:
/// - Scalar multiplication and division on the right by elements of `f32`
/// - Negation
/// - Addition and subtraction
/// - Zero
///
/// Within the limitations of floating point arithmetic, all the following are required to hold:
/// - (Associativity of addition) For all `u, v, w: Self`, `(u + v) + w == u + (v + w)`.
/// - (Commutativity of addition) For all `u, v: Self`, `u + v == v + u`.
/// - (Additive identity) For all `v: Self`, `v + Self::ZERO == v`.
/// - (Additive inverse) For all `v: Self`, `v - v == v + (-v) == Self::ZERO`.
/// - (Compatibility of multiplication) For all `a, b: f32`, `v: Self`, `v * (a * b) == (v * a) * b`.

Furthermore, this PR also demonstrates the use of the
`NormedVectorSpace` combined API to implement `ShapeSample` for
`Triangle2d` and `Triangle3d` simultaneously. Such deduplication is one
of the drivers for developing these APIs.
---
## Changelog
- `Point` from `cubic_splines` becomes `VectorSpace`, exported as
`bevy::math::VectorSpace`.
- `VectorSpace` requires `Neg` and `VectorSpace::ZERO` in addition to
its existing prerequisites.
- Introduced public traits `bevy::math::NormedVectorSpace` for generic
geometry tasks involving vectors.
- Implemented `ShapeSample` for `Triangle2d` and `Triangle3d`.
## Migration Guide
Since `Point` no longer exists, any projects using it must switch to
`bevy::math::VectorSpace`. Additionally, third-party implementations of
this trait now require the `Neg` trait; the constant `VectorSpace::ZERO`
must be provided as well.
---
## Discussion
### Design considerations
Originally, the `NormedVectorSpace::norm` method was part of a separate
trait `Normed`. However, I think that was probably too broad and, more
importantly, the semantics of having it in `NormedVectorSpace` are much
clearer.
As it currently stands, the API exposed here is pretty minimal, and
there is definitely a lot more that we could do, but there are more
questions to answer along the way. As a silly example, we could
implement `NormedVectorSpace::length` as an alias for
`NormedVectorSpace::norm`, but this overlaps with methods in all of the
glam types, so we would want to make sure that the implementations are
effectively identical (for what it's worth, I think they are already).
### Future directions
One example of something that could belong in the `NormedVectorSpace`
API is normalization. Actually, such a thing previously existed on this
branch before I decided to shelve it because of concerns with namespace
collision. It looked like this:
```rust
/// This element, but normalized to norm 1 if possible. Returns an error when the reciprocal of
/// the element's norm is not finite.
#[inline]
#[must_use]
fn normalize(&self) -> Result<Self, NonNormalizableError> {
let reciprocal = 1.0 / self.norm();
if reciprocal.is_finite() {
Ok(*self * reciprocal)
} else {
Err(NonNormalizableError { reciprocal })
}
}
/// An error indicating that an element of a [`NormedVectorSpace`] was non-normalizable due to having
/// non-finite norm-reciprocal.
#[derive(Debug, Error)]
#[error("Element with norm reciprocal {reciprocal} cannot be normalized")]
pub struct NonNormalizableError {
reciprocal: f32
}
```
With this kind of thing in hand, it might be worth considering
eventually making the passage from vectors to directions fully generic
by employing a wrapper type. (Of course, for our concrete types, we
would leave the existing names in place as aliases.) That is, something
like:
```rust
pub struct NormOne<T>
where T: NormedVectorSpace { //... }
```
Utterly separately, the reason that I implemented `ShapeSample` for
`Triangle2d`/`Triangle3d` was to prototype uniform sampling of abstract
meshes, so that's also a future direction.

# Objective
Since it is common to store a pair of width and height as `Vec2`, it
would be useful to have an easy way to instantiate `AspectRatio` from
`Vec2`.
## Solution
Add `impl From<Vec2> for AspectRatio`.
---
## Changelog
- Added `impl From<Vec2> for AspectRatio`
# Objective
Fixes `cargo test -p bevy_math` as in #12729.
## Solution
As described in
[message](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/12729#issuecomment-2022197944)
Added workaround `bevy_math = { path = ".", version = "0.14.0-dev",
features = ["approx"] }` to `bevy_math`'s `dev-dependencies`

# Objective
- Fixes#12712
## Solution
- Move the `float_ord.rs` file to `bevy_math`
- Change any `bevy_utils::FloatOrd` statements to `bevy_math::FloatOrd`
---
## Changelog
- Moved `FloatOrd` from `bevy_utils` to `bevy_math`
## Migration Guide
- References to `bevy_utils::FloatOrd` should be changed to
`bevy_math::FloatOrd`
# Objective
Resolves#3824. `unsafe` code should be the exception, not the norm in
Rust. It's obviously needed for various use cases as it's interfacing
with platforms and essentially running the borrow checker at runtime in
the ECS, but the touted benefits of Bevy is that we are able to heavily
leverage Rust's safety, and we should be holding ourselves accountable
to that by minimizing our unsafe footprint.
## Solution
Deny `unsafe_code` workspace wide. Add explicit exceptions for the
following crates, and forbid it in almost all of the others.
* bevy_ecs - Obvious given how much unsafe is needed to achieve
performant results
* bevy_ptr - Works with raw pointers, even more low level than bevy_ecs.
* bevy_render - due to needing to integrate with wgpu
* bevy_window - due to needing to integrate with raw_window_handle
* bevy_utils - Several unsafe utilities used by bevy_ecs. Ideally moved
into bevy_ecs instead of made publicly usable.
* bevy_reflect - Required for the unsafe type casting it's doing.
* bevy_transform - for the parallel transform propagation
* bevy_gizmos - For the SystemParam impls it has.
* bevy_assets - To support reflection. Might not be required, not 100%
sure yet.
* bevy_mikktspace - due to being a conversion from a C library. Pending
safe rewrite.
* bevy_dynamic_plugin - Inherently unsafe due to the dynamic loading
nature.
Several uses of unsafe were rewritten, as they did not need to be using
them:
* bevy_text - a case of `Option::unchecked` could be rewritten as a
normal for loop and match instead of an iterator.
* bevy_color - the Pod/Zeroable implementations were replaceable with
bytemuck's derive macros.
