Add two examples on how to communicate with a task that is running either in another thread or in a thread from `AsyncComputeTaskPool`.
Loosely based on https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/discussions/1150
## Objective
There is no bevy example that shows how to transform a sprite. At least as its singular purpose. This creates an example of how to use transform.translate to move a sprite up and down. The last pull request had issues that I couldn't fix so I created a new one
### Solution
I created move_sprite example.

# Objective
Some new bevy users are unfamiliar with quaternions and have trouble working with rotations in 2D.
There has been an [issue](https://github.com/bitshifter/glam-rs/issues/226) raised with glam to add helpers to better support these users, however for now I feel could be better to provide examples of how to do this in Bevy as a starting point for new users.
## Solution
I've added a 2d_rotation example which demonstrates 3 different rotation examples to try help get people started:
- Rotating and translating a player ship based on keyboard input
- An enemy ship type that rotates to face the player ship immediately
- An enemy ship type that rotates to face the player at a fixed angular velocity
I also have a standalone version of this example here https://github.com/bitshifter/bevy-2d-rotation-example but I think it would be more discoverable if it's included with Bevy.
# Objective
- There are wasm specific examples, which is misleading as now it works by default
- I saw a few people on discord trying to work through those examples that are very limited
## Solution
- Remove them and update the instructions
adds an example using UI for something more related to a game than the current UI examples.
Example with a game menu:
* new game - will display settings for 5 seconds before returning to menu
* preferences - can modify the settings, with two sub menus
* quit - will quit the game
I wanted a more complex UI example before starting the UI rewrite to have ground for comparison

# Objective
In this PR I added the ability to opt-out graphical backends. Closes#3155.
## Solution
I turned backends into `Option` ~~and removed panicking sub app API to force users handle the error (was suggested by `@cart`)~~.
# Objective
The current 2d rendering is specialized to render sprites, we need a generic way to render 2d items, using meshes and materials like we have for 3d.
## Solution
I cloned a good part of `bevy_pbr` into `bevy_sprite/src/mesh2d`, removed lighting and pbr itself, adapted it to 2d rendering, added a `ColorMaterial`, and modified the sprite rendering to break batches around 2d meshes.
~~The PR is a bit crude; I tried to change as little as I could in both the parts copied from 3d and the current sprite rendering to make reviewing easier. In the future, I expect we could make the sprite rendering a normal 2d material, cleanly integrated with the rest.~~ _edit: see <https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/3460#issuecomment-1003605194>_
## Remaining work
- ~~don't require mesh normals~~ _out of scope_
- ~~add an example~~ _done_
- support 2d meshes & materials in the UI?
- bikeshed names (I didn't think hard about naming, please check if it's fine)
## Remaining questions
- ~~should we add a depth buffer to 2d now that there are 2d meshes?~~ _let's revisit that when we have an opaque render phase_
- ~~should we add MSAA support to the sprites, or remove it from the 2d meshes?~~ _I added MSAA to sprites since it's really needed for 2d meshes_
- ~~how to customize vertex attributes?~~ _#3120_

# Objective
- The multiple windows example which was viciously murdered in #3175.
- cart asked me to
## Solution
- Rework the example to work on pipelined-rendering, based on the work from #2898
# Objective
Every time I come back to Bevy I face the same issue: how do I draw a rectangle again? How did that work? So I go to https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/tree/main/examples in the hope of finding literally the simplest possible example that draws something on the screen without any dependency such as an image. I don't want to have to add some image first, I just quickly want to get something on the screen with `main.rs` alone so that I can continue building on from that point on. Such an example is particularly helpful for a quick start for smaller projects that don't even need any assets such as images (this is my case currently).
Currently every single example of https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/tree/main/examples#2d-rendering (which is the first section after hello world that beginners will look for for very minimalistic and quick examples) depends on at least an asset or is too complex. This PR solves this.
It also serves as a great comparison for a beginner to realize what Bevy is really like and how different it is from what they may expect Bevy to be. For example for someone coming from [LÖVE](https://love2d.org/), they will have something like this in their head when they think of drawing a rectangle:
```lua
function love.draw()
love.graphics.setColor(0.25, 0.25, 0.75);
love.graphics.rectangle("fill", 0, 0, 50, 50);
end
```
This, of course, differs quite a lot from what you do in Bevy. I imagine there will be people that just want to see something as simple as this in comparison to have a better understanding for the amount of differences.
## Solution
Add a dead simple example drawing a blue 50x50 rectangle in the center with no more and no less than needed.
# Objective
This PR fixes a crash when winit is enabled when there is a camera in the world. Part of #3155
## Solution
In this PR, I removed two unwraps and added an example for regression testing.
This makes the [New Bevy Renderer](#2535) the default (and only) renderer. The new renderer isn't _quite_ ready for the final release yet, but I want as many people as possible to start testing it so we can identify bugs and address feedback prior to release.
The examples are all ported over and operational with a few exceptions:
* I removed a good portion of the examples in the `shader` folder. We still have some work to do in order to make these examples possible / ergonomic / worthwhile: #3120 and "high level shader material plugins" are the big ones. This is a temporary measure.
* Temporarily removed the multiple_windows example: doing this properly in the new renderer will require the upcoming "render targets" changes. Same goes for the render_to_texture example.
* Removed z_sort_debug: entity visibility sort info is no longer available in app logic. we could do this on the "render app" side, but i dont consider it a priority.
# Objective
Port bevy_ui to pipelined-rendering (see #2535 )
## Solution
I did some changes during the port:
- [X] separate color from the texture asset (as suggested [here](https://discord.com/channels/691052431525675048/743663924229963868/874353914525413406))
- [X] ~give the vertex shader a per-instance buffer instead of per-vertex buffer~ (incompatible with batching)
Remaining features to implement to reach parity with the old renderer:
- [x] textures
- [X] TextBundle
I'd also like to add these features, but they need some design discussion:
- [x] batching
- [ ] separate opaque and transparent phases
- [ ] multiple windows
- [ ] texture atlases
- [ ] (maybe) clipping
Applogies, had to recreate this pr because of branching issue.
Old PR: https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/3033
# Objective
Fixes#3032
Allowing a user to create a transparent window
## Solution
I've allowed the transparent bool to be passed to the winit window builder
# Objective
- Remove `cargo-lipo` as [it's deprecated](https://github.com/TimNN/cargo-lipo#maintenance-status) and doesn't work on new Apple processors
- Fix CI that will fail as soon as GitHub update the worker used by Bevy to macOS 11
## Solution
- Replace `cargo-lipo` with building with the correct target
- Setup the correct path to libraries by using `xcrun --show-sdk-path`
- Also try and fix path to cmake in case it's not found but available through homebrew
Add an example that demonstrates the difference between no MSAA and MSAA 4x. This is also useful for testing panics when resizing the window using MSAA. This is on top of #3042 .

## New Features
This adds the following to the new renderer:
* **Shader Assets**
* Shaders are assets again! Users no longer need to call `include_str!` for their shaders
* Shader hot-reloading
* **Shader Defs / Shader Preprocessing**
* Shaders now support `# ifdef NAME`, `# ifndef NAME`, and `# endif` preprocessor directives
* **Bevy RenderPipelineDescriptor and RenderPipelineCache**
* Bevy now provides its own `RenderPipelineDescriptor` and the wgpu version is now exported as `RawRenderPipelineDescriptor`. This allows users to define pipelines with `Handle<Shader>` instead of needing to manually compile and reference `ShaderModules`, enables passing in shader defs to configure the shader preprocessor, makes hot reloading possible (because the descriptor can be owned and used to create new pipelines when a shader changes), and opens the doors to pipeline specialization.
* The `RenderPipelineCache` now handles compiling and re-compiling Bevy RenderPipelineDescriptors. It has internal PipelineLayout and ShaderModule caches. Users receive a `CachedPipelineId`, which can be used to look up the actual `&RenderPipeline` during rendering.
* **Pipeline Specialization**
* This enables defining per-entity-configurable pipelines that specialize on arbitrary custom keys. In practice this will involve specializing based on things like MSAA values, Shader Defs, Bind Group existence, and Vertex Layouts.
* Adds a `SpecializedPipeline` trait and `SpecializedPipelines<MyPipeline>` resource. This is a simple layer that generates Bevy RenderPipelineDescriptors based on a custom key defined for the pipeline.
* Specialized pipelines are also hot-reloadable.
* This was the result of experimentation with two different approaches:
1. **"generic immediate mode multi-key hash pipeline specialization"**
* breaks up the pipeline into multiple "identities" (the core pipeline definition, shader defs, mesh layout, bind group layout). each of these identities has its own key. looking up / compiling a specific version of a pipeline requires composing all of these keys together
* the benefit of this approach is that it works for all pipelines / the pipeline is fully identified by the keys. the multiple keys allow pre-hashing parts of the pipeline identity where possible (ex: pre compute the mesh identity for all meshes)
* the downside is that any per-entity data that informs the values of these keys could require expensive re-hashes. computing each key for each sprite tanked bevymark performance (sprites don't actually need this level of specialization yet ... but things like pbr and future sprite scenarios might).
* this is the approach rafx used last time i checked
2. **"custom key specialization"**
* Pipelines by default are not specialized
* Pipelines that need specialization implement a SpecializedPipeline trait with a custom key associated type
* This allows specialization keys to encode exactly the amount of information required (instead of needing to be a combined hash of the entire pipeline). Generally this should fit in a small number of bytes. Per-entity specialization barely registers anymore on things like bevymark. It also makes things like "shader defs" way cheaper to hash because we can use context specific bitflags instead of strings.
* Despite the extra trait, it actually generally makes pipeline definitions + lookups simpler: managing multiple keys (and making the appropriate calls to manage these keys) was way more complicated.
* I opted for custom key specialization. It performs better generally and in my opinion is better UX. Fortunately the way this is implemented also allows for custom caches as this all builds on a common abstraction: the RenderPipelineCache. The built in custom key trait is just a simple / pre-defined way to interact with the cache
## Callouts
* The SpecializedPipeline trait makes it easy to inherit pipeline configuration in custom pipelines. The changes to `custom_shader_pipelined` and the new `shader_defs_pipelined` example illustrate how much simpler it is to define custom pipelines based on the PbrPipeline.
* The shader preprocessor is currently pretty naive (it just uses regexes to process each line). Ultimately we might want to build a more custom parser for more performance + better error handling, but for now I'm happy to optimize for "easy to implement and understand".
## Next Steps
* Port compute pipelines to the new system
* Add more preprocessor directives (else, elif, import)
* More flexible vertex attribute specialization / enable cheaply specializing on specific mesh vertex layouts
This changes how render logic is composed to make it much more modular. Previously, all extraction logic was centralized for a given "type" of rendered thing. For example, we extracted meshes into a vector of ExtractedMesh, which contained the mesh and material asset handles, the transform, etc. We looked up bindings for "drawn things" using their index in the `Vec<ExtractedMesh>`. This worked fine for built in rendering, but made it hard to reuse logic for "custom" rendering. It also prevented us from reusing things like "extracted transforms" across contexts.
To make rendering more modular, I made a number of changes:
* Entities now drive rendering:
* We extract "render components" from "app components" and store them _on_ entities. No more centralized uber lists! We now have true "ECS-driven rendering"
* To make this perform well, I implemented #2673 in upstream Bevy for fast batch insertions into specific entities. This was merged into the `pipelined-rendering` branch here: #2815
* Reworked the `Draw` abstraction:
* Generic `PhaseItems`: each draw phase can define its own type of "rendered thing", which can define its own "sort key"
* Ported the 2d, 3d, and shadow phases to the new PhaseItem impl (currently Transparent2d, Transparent3d, and Shadow PhaseItems)
* `Draw` trait and and `DrawFunctions` are now generic on PhaseItem
* Modular / Ergonomic `DrawFunctions` via `RenderCommands`
* RenderCommand is a trait that runs an ECS query and produces one or more RenderPass calls. Types implementing this trait can be composed to create a final DrawFunction. For example the DrawPbr DrawFunction is created from the following DrawCommand tuple. Const generics are used to set specific bind group locations:
```rust
pub type DrawPbr = (
SetPbrPipeline,
SetMeshViewBindGroup<0>,
SetStandardMaterialBindGroup<1>,
SetTransformBindGroup<2>,
DrawMesh,
);
```
* The new `custom_shader_pipelined` example illustrates how the commands above can be reused to create a custom draw function:
```rust
type DrawCustom = (
SetCustomMaterialPipeline,
SetMeshViewBindGroup<0>,
SetTransformBindGroup<2>,
DrawMesh,
);
```
* ExtractComponentPlugin and UniformComponentPlugin:
* Simple, standardized ways to easily extract individual components and write them to GPU buffers
* Ported PBR and Sprite rendering to the new primitives above.
* Removed staging buffer from UniformVec in favor of direct Queue usage
* Makes UniformVec much easier to use and more ergonomic. Completely removes the need for custom render graph nodes in these contexts (see the PbrNode and view Node removals and the much simpler call patterns in the relevant Prepare systems).
* Added a many_cubes_pipelined example to benchmark baseline 3d rendering performance and ensure there were no major regressions during this port. Avoiding regressions was challenging given that the old approach of extracting into centralized vectors is basically the "optimal" approach. However thanks to a various ECS optimizations and render logic rephrasing, we pretty much break even on this benchmark!
* Lifetimeless SystemParams: this will be a bit divisive, but as we continue to embrace "trait driven systems" (ex: ExtractComponentPlugin, UniformComponentPlugin, DrawCommand), the ergonomics of `(Query<'static, 'static, (&'static A, &'static B, &'static)>, Res<'static, C>)` were getting very hard to bear. As a compromise, I added "static type aliases" for the relevant SystemParams. The previous example can now be expressed like this: `(SQuery<(Read<A>, Read<B>)>, SRes<C>)`. If anyone has better ideas / conflicting opinions, please let me know!
* RunSystem trait: a way to define Systems via a trait with a SystemParam associated type. This is used to implement the various plugins mentioned above. I also added SystemParamItem and QueryItem type aliases to make "trait stye" ecs interactions nicer on the eyes (and fingers).
* RenderAsset retrying: ensures that render assets are only created when they are "ready" and allows us to create bind groups directly inside render assets (which significantly simplified the StandardMaterial code). I think ultimately we should swap this out on "asset dependency" events to wait for dependencies to load, but this will require significant asset system changes.
* Updated some built in shaders to account for missing MeshUniform fields
This updates the `pipelined-rendering` branch to use the latest `bevy_ecs` from `main`. This accomplishes a couple of goals:
1. prepares for upcoming `custom-shaders` branch changes, which were what drove many of the recent bevy_ecs changes on `main`
2. prepares for the soon-to-happen merge of `pipelined-rendering` into `main`. By including bevy_ecs changes now, we make that merge simpler / easier to review.
I split this up into 3 commits:
1. **add upstream bevy_ecs**: please don't bother reviewing this content. it has already received thorough review on `main` and is a literal copy/paste of the relevant folders (the old folders were deleted so the directories are literally exactly the same as `main`).
2. **support manual buffer application in stages**: this is used to enable the Extract step. we've already reviewed this once on the `pipelined-rendering` branch, but its worth looking at one more time in the new context of (1).
3. **support manual archetype updates in QueryState**: same situation as (2).
# Objective
Forward perspective projections have poor floating point precision distribution over the depth range. Reverse projections fair much better, and instead of having to have a far plane, with the reverse projection, using an infinite far plane is not a problem. The infinite reverse perspective projection has become the industry standard. The renderer rework is a great time to migrate to it.
## Solution
All perspective projections, including point lights, have been moved to using `glam::Mat4::perspective_infinite_reverse_rh()` and so have no far plane. As various depth textures are shared between orthographic and perspective projections, a quirk of this PR is that the near and far planes of the orthographic projection are swapped when the Mat4 is computed. This has no impact on 2D/3D orthographic projection usage, and provides consistency in shaders, texture clear values, etc. throughout the codebase.
## Known issues
For some reason, when looking along -Z, all geometry is black. The camera can be translated up/down / strafed left/right and geometry will still be black. Moving forward/backward or rotating the camera away from looking exactly along -Z causes everything to work as expected.
I have tried to debug this issue but both in macOS and Windows I get crashes when doing pixel debugging. If anyone could reproduce this and debug it I would be very grateful. Otherwise I will have to try to debug it further without pixel debugging, though the projections and such all looked fine to me.
# Objective
Allow marking meshes as not casting / receiving shadows.
## Solution
- Added `NotShadowCaster` and `NotShadowReceiver` zero-sized type components.
- Extract these components into `bool`s in `ExtractedMesh`
- Only generate `DrawShadowMesh` `Drawable`s for meshes _without_ `NotShadowCaster`
- Add a `u32` bit `flags` member to `MeshUniform` with one flag indicating whether the mesh is a shadow receiver
- If a mesh does _not_ have the `NotShadowReceiver` component, then it is a shadow receiver, and so the bit in the `MeshUniform` is set, otherwise it is not set.
- Added an example illustrating the functionality.
NOTE: I wanted to have the default state of a mesh as being a shadow caster and shadow receiver, hence the `Not*` components. However, I am on the fence about this. I don't want to have a negative performance impact, nor have people wondering why their custom meshes don't have shadows because they forgot to add `ShadowCaster` and `ShadowReceiver` components, but I also really don't like the double negatives the `Not*` approach incurs. What do you think?

# Objective
- Allow the user to set the clear color when using the pipelined renderer
## Solution
- Add a `ClearColor` resource that can be added to the world to configure the clear color
## Remaining Issues
Currently the `ClearColor` resource is cloned from the app world to the render world every frame. There are two ways I can think of around this:
1. Figure out why `app_world.is_resource_changed::<ClearColor>()` always returns `true` in the `extract` step and fix it so that we are only updating the resource when it changes
2. Require the users to add the `ClearColor` resource to the render sub-app instead of the parent app. This is currently sub-optimal until we have labled sub-apps, and probably a helper funciton on `App` such as `app.with_sub_app(RenderApp, |app| { ... })`. Even if we had that, I think it would be more than we want the user to have to think about. They shouldn't have to know about the render sub-app I don't think.
I think the first option is the best, but I could really use some help figuring out the nuance of why `is_resource_changed` is always returning true in that context.
# Objective
Restore the functionality of sprite atlases in the new renderer.
### **Note:** This PR relies on #2555
## Solution
Mostly just a copy paste of the existing sprite atlas implementation, however I unified the rendering between sprites and atlases.

In response to #2023, here is a draft for a PR.
Fixes#2023
I've added an example to show how to use `WithBundle`, and also to test it out.
Right now there is a bug: If a bundle and a query are "the same", then it doesn't filter out
what it needs to filter out.
Example:
```
Print component initated from bundle.
[examples/ecs/query_bundle.rs:57] x = Dummy( <========= This should not get printed
111,
)
[examples/ecs/query_bundle.rs:57] x = Dummy(
222,
)
Show all components
[examples/ecs/query_bundle.rs:50] x = Dummy(
111,
)
[examples/ecs/query_bundle.rs:50] x = Dummy(
222,
)
```
However, it behaves the right way, if I add one more component to the bundle,
so the query and the bundle doesn't look the same:
```
Print component initated from bundle.
[examples/ecs/query_bundle.rs:57] x = Dummy(
222,
)
Show all components
[examples/ecs/query_bundle.rs:50] x = Dummy(
111,
)
[examples/ecs/query_bundle.rs:50] x = Dummy(
222,
)
```
I hope this helps. I'm definitely up for tinkering with this, and adding anything that I'm asked to add
or change.

If accepted, fixes#1694 .
I wanted to explore system sets and run criteria a bit, so made an example expanding a bit on the snippets shown in the 0.5 release post.
Shows a couple of system sets, uses system labels, run criterion, and a use of the interesting `RunCriterion::pipe` functionality.
This PR adds an example on how to animate a shader by passing the global `time.seconds_since_startup()` to a component, and accessing that component inside the shader.
Hopefully this is the current proper solution, please let me know if it should be solved in another way.

I was looking into "lower level" rendering and I saw no example on how to do that. Yet, I think it's something relevant to show, so I set up a simple example on how to do that. I hope it's welcome.
I'm not confident about the code and a review is definitely nice to have, especially because there are a few things that are not great.
Specifically, I think it would be nice to see how to render with a completely custom set of attributes (position and color, in this case), but I couldn't manage to get it working without normals and uv.
It makes sense if bevy Meshes need these two attributes, but I'm not sure about it.

1. The instructions in the main README used to point users to the git main version. This has likely misdirected and confused many new users. Update to direct users to the latest release instead.
2. Rewrite the notice in the examples README to make it clearer and more concise, and to show the `latest` git branch.

OK, here's my attempt at sprite flipping. There are a couple of points that I need review/help on, but I think the UX is about ideal:
```rust
.spawn(SpriteBundle {
material: materials.add(texture_handle.into()),
sprite: Sprite {
// Flip the sprite along the x axis
flip: SpriteFlip { x: true, y: false },
..Default::default()
},
..Default::default()
});
```
Now for the issues. The big issue is that for some reason, when flipping the UVs on the sprite, there is a light "bleeding" or whatever you call it where the UV tries to sample past the texture boundry and ends up clipping. This is only noticed when resizing the window, though. You can see a screenshot below.
I am quite baffled why the texture sampling is overrunning like it is and could use some guidance if anybody knows what might be wrong.
The other issue, which I just worked around, is that I had to remove the `#[render_resources(from_self)]` annotation from the Spritesheet because the `SpriteFlip` render resource wasn't being picked up properly in the shader when using it. I'm not sure what the cause of that was, but by removing the annotation and re-organizing the shader inputs accordingly the problem was fixed.
I'm not sure if this is the most efficient way to do this or if there is a better way, but I wanted to try it out if only for the learning experience. Let me know what you think!
It took me a little while to figure out how to use the `SystemParam` derive macro to easily create my own params. So I figured I'd add some docs and an example with what I learned.
- Fixed a bug in the `SystemParam` derive macro where it didn't detect the correct crate name when used in an example (no longer relevant, replaced by #1426 - see further)
- Added some doc comments and a short example code block in the docs for the `SystemParam` trait
- Added a more complete example with explanatory comments in examples

The provided Rules are documented here: https://github.com/DavidAnson/markdownlint/blob/v0.23.1/doc/Rules.md
Rules I didn't follow/fix:
* MD024/no-duplicate-heading
* Changelog: Here Heading will always repeat.
* Examples Readme: Platform-specific documentation should be symmetrical.
* MD025/single-title
* MD026/no-trailing-punctuation
* Caused by the ! in "Hello, World!".
* MD033/no-inline-html
* The plugins_guidlines file does need HTML, so the shown badges aren't downscaled too much.
* ~~MD036/no-emphasis-as-heading:~~
* ~~This Warning only Appears in the Github Issue Templates and can be ignored.~~
* ~~MD041/first-line-heading~~
* ~~Only appears in the Readme for the AlienCake example Assets, which is unimportant.~~
---
I also sorted the Examples in the Readme and Cargo.toml in this order/Priority:
* Topic/Folder
* Introductionary Examples
* Alphabetical Order
The explanation for each case, where it isn't Alphabetical :
* Diagnostics
* log_diagnostics: The usage of inbuild Diagnostics is more important than creating your own.
* ECS (Entity Component System)
* ecs_guide: The guide should be read, before diving into other Features.
* Reflection
* reflection: Basic Explanation should be read, before more advanced Topics.
* WASM Examples
* hello_wasm: It's "Hello, World!".
* use `length_squared` for visible entities
* ortho projection 2d/3d different depth calculation
* use ScalingMode::FixedVertical for 3d ortho
* new example: 3d orthographic
- added some missing examples
- changed the order of a few examples (app/empty came after app/empty_default for example)
- added a table with the examples for Android and iOS, like it was done for wasm
