# Objective
While coding in bevy I needed to get the elapsed time of a stopwatch as f64.
I found it quite odd there are functions on Timer to get time as f64 but not on the Stopwatch.
## Solution
- added a function that returns the `Stopwatch` elapsed time as `f64`
---
## Changelog
### Added
- Added a function to get `Stopwatch` elapsed time as `f64`
### Fixed
- The Stopwatch elapsed function had a wrong docs link
# Objective
Reduce the catch-all grab-bag of functionality in bevy_core by minimally splitting off time functionality into bevy_time. Functionality like that provided by #3002 would increase the complexity of bevy_time, so this is a good candidate for pulling into its own unit.
A step in addressing #2931 and splitting bevy_core into more specific locations.
## Solution
Pull the time module of bevy_core into a new crate, bevy_time.
# Migration guide
- Time related types (e.g. `Time`, `Timer`, `Stopwatch`, `FixedTimestep`, etc.) should be imported from `bevy::time::*` rather than `bevy::core::*`.
- If you were adding `CorePlugin` manually, you'll also want to add `TimePlugin` from `bevy::time`.
- The `bevy::core::CorePlugin::Time` system label is replaced with `bevy::time::TimeSystem`.
