Examples
These examples demonstrate the main features of Bevy and how to use them.
To run an example, use the command cargo run --example <Example>
, and add the option --features x11
or --features wayland
to force the example to run on a specific window compositor, e.g.
cargo run --features wayland --example hello_world
⚠️ Note: for users of releases on crates.io!
There are often large differences and incompatible API changes between the latest crates.io release and the development version of Bevy in the git main branch!
If you are using a released version of bevy, you need to make sure you are viewing the correct version of the examples!
- Latest release: https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/tree/latest/examples
- Specific version, such as
0.4
: https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/tree/v0.4.0/examples
When you clone the repo locally to run the examples, use git checkout
to get the correct version:
# `latest` always points to the newest release
git checkout latest
# or use a specific version
git checkout v0.4.0

These examples demonstrate how to implement different shaders in user code.
A shader in its most common usage is a small program that is run by the GPU per-vertex in a mesh (a vertex shader) or per-affected-screen-fragment (a fragment shader.) The GPU executes these programs in a highly parallel way.
There are also compute shaders which are used for more general processing leveraging the GPU's parallelism.

Platform-Specific Examples
Android
Setup
rustup target add aarch64-linux-android armv7-linux-androideabi
cargo install cargo-apk
The Android SDK must be installed, and the environment variable ANDROID_SDK_ROOT
set to the root Android sdk
folder.
When using NDK (Side by side)
, the environment variable ANDROID_NDK_ROOT
must also be set to one of the NDKs in sdk\ndk\[NDK number]
.
Build & Run
To run on a device setup for Android development, run:
cargo apk run -p bevy_mobile_example
When using Bevy as a library, the following fields must be added to Cargo.toml
:
[package.metadata.android]
build_targets = ["aarch64-linux-android", "armv7-linux-androideabi"]
[package.metadata.android.sdk]
target_sdk_version = 31
Please reference cargo-apk
README for other Android Manifest fields.
Debugging
You can view the logs with the following command:
adb logcat | grep 'RustStdoutStderr\|bevy\|wgpu'
In case of an error getting a GPU or setting it up, you can try settings logs of wgpu_hal
to DEBUG
to get more information.
Sometimes, running the app complains about an unknown activity. This may be fixed by uninstalling the application:
adb uninstall org.bevyengine.example
Old phones
Bevy by default targets Android API level 31 in its examples which is the Play Store's minimum API to upload or update apps. Users of older phones may want to use an older API when testing.
To use a different API, the following fields must be updated in Cargo.toml:
[package.metadata.android.sdk]
target_sdk_version = >>API<<
min_sdk_version = >>API or less<<
Example | File | Description |
---|---|---|
android |
mobile/src/lib.rs |
A 3d Scene with a button and playing sound |
iOS
Setup
You need to install the correct rust targets:
aarch64-apple-ios
: iOS devicesx86_64-apple-ios
: iOS simulator on x86 processorsaarch64-apple-ios-sim
: iOS simulator on Apple processors
rustup target add aarch64-apple-ios x86_64-apple-ios aarch64-apple-ios-sim
Build & Run
Using bash:
cd examples/mobile
make run
In an ideal world, this will boot up, install and run the app for the first
iOS simulator in your xcrun simctl list devices
. If this fails, you can
specify the simulator device UUID via:
DEVICE_ID=${YOUR_DEVICE_ID} make run
If you'd like to see xcode do stuff, you can run
open bevy_mobile_example.xcodeproj/
which will open xcode. You then must push the zoom zoom play button and wait for the magic.
Example | File | Description |
---|---|---|
ios |
mobile/src/lib.rs |
A 3d Scene with a button and playing sound |
WASM
Setup
rustup target add wasm32-unknown-unknown
cargo install wasm-bindgen-cli
Build & Run
Following is an example for lighting
. For other examples, change the lighting
in the
following commands.
cargo build --release --example lighting --target wasm32-unknown-unknown
wasm-bindgen --out-name wasm_example \
--out-dir examples/wasm/target \
--target web target/wasm32-unknown-unknown/release/examples/lighting.wasm
The first command will build the example for the wasm target, creating a binary. Then,
wasm-bindgen-cli is used to create
javascript bindings to this wasm file in the output file examples/wasm/target/wasm_example.js
, which can be loaded using this
example HTML file.
Then serve examples/wasm
directory to browser. i.e.
# cargo install basic-http-server
basic-http-server examples/wasm
# with python
python3 -m http.server --directory examples/wasm
# with ruby
ruby -run -ehttpd examples/wasm
WebGL2 and WebGPU
Bevy support for WebGPU is being worked on, but is currently experimental.
To build for WebGPU, you'll need to enable the webgpu
feature. This will override the webgl2
feature, and builds with the webgpu
feature enabled won't be able to run on browsers that don't support WebGPU.
Bevy has an helper to build its examples:
- Build for WebGL2:
cargo run -p build-wasm-example -- --api webgl2 load_gltf
- Build for WebGPU:
cargo run -p build-wasm-example -- --api webgpu load_gltf
This helper will log the command used to build the examples.
Audio in the browsers
For the moment, everything is single threaded, this can lead to stuttering when playing audio in browsers. Not all browsers react the same way for all games, you will have to experiment for your game.
In browsers, audio is not authorized to start without being triggered by an user interaction. This is to avoid multiple tabs all starting to auto play some sounds. You can find more context and explanation for this on Google Chrome blog. This page also describes a JS workaround to resume audio as soon as the user interact with your game.
Optimizing
On the web, it's useful to reduce the size of the files that are distributed. With rust, there are many ways to improve your executable sizes. Here are some.
1. Tweak your Cargo.toml
Add a new profile
to your Cargo.toml
:
[profile.wasm-release]
# Use release profile as default values
inherits = "release"
# Optimize with size in mind, also try "s", sometimes it is better.
# This doesn't increase compilation times compared to -O3, great improvements
opt-level = "z"
# Do a second optimization pass removing duplicate or unused code from dependencies.
# Slows compile times, marginal improvements
lto = "fat"
# When building crates, optimize larger chunks at a time
# Slows compile times, marginal improvements
codegen-units = 1
Now, when building the final executable, use the wasm-release
profile
by replacing --release
by --profile wasm-release
in the cargo command.
cargo build --profile wasm-release --example lighting --target wasm32-unknown-unknown
Make sure your final executable size is smaller, some of those optimizations may not be worth keeping, due to compilation time increases.
2. Use wasm-opt
from the binaryen package
Binaryen is a set of tools for working with wasm. It has a wasm-opt
CLI tool.
First download the binaryen
package,
then locate the .wasm
file generated by wasm-bindgen
.
It should be in the --out-dir
you specified in the command line,
the file name should end in _bg.wasm
.
Then run wasm-opt
with the -Oz
flag. Note that wasm-opt
is very slow.
Note that wasm-opt
optimizations might not be as effective if you
didn't apply the optimizations from the previous section.
wasm-opt -Oz --output optimized.wasm examples/wasm/target/lighting_bg.wasm
mv optimized.wasm examples/wasm/target/lighting_bg.wasm
For a small project with a basic 3d model and two lights, the generated file sizes are, as of July 2022, as follows:
profile | wasm-opt | no wasm-opt |
---|---|---|
Default | 8.5M | 13.0M |
opt-level = "z" | 6.1M | 12.7M |
"z" + lto = "thin" | 5.9M | 12M |
"z" + lto = "fat" | 5.1M | 9.4M |
"z" + "thin" + codegen-units = 1 | 5.3M | 11M |
"z" + "fat" + codegen-units = 1 | 4.8M | 8.5M |
There are more advanced optimization options available, check the following pages for more info:
- https://rustwasm.github.io/book/reference/code-size.html
- https://rustwasm.github.io/docs/wasm-bindgen/reference/optimize-size.html
- https://rustwasm.github.io/book/game-of-life/code-size.html
Loading Assets
To load assets, they need to be available in the folder examples/wasm/assets. Cloning this repository will set it up as a symlink on Linux and macOS, but you will need to manually move the assets on Windows.
