# bevy_tasks
|
|
|
|
A refreshingly simple task executor for bevy. :)
|
|
|
|
This is a simple threadpool with minimal dependencies. The main usecase is a scoped fork-join, i.e. spawning tasks from
|
|
a single thread and having that thread await the completion of those tasks. This is intended specifically for
|
|
[`bevy`][bevy] as a lighter alternative to [`rayon`][rayon] for this specific usecase. There are also utilities for
|
|
generating the tasks from a slice of data. This library is intended for games and makes no attempt to ensure fairness
|
|
or ordering of spawned tasks.
|
|
|
|
It is based on [`multitask`][multitask], a lightweight executor that allows the end user to manage their own threads.
|
|
`multitask` is based on async-task, a core piece of async-std.
