It greatly reduces boilerplate code for +loading states and can resolve asset configuration at run time. + +This month, version `0.11.0` was released. It supports loading lists of files +as `Vec` or `Vec>`. This is an alternative to loading +folders, which is not supported on the web. You can now track the loading +progress of your assets with [iyes_progress] and build loading bars. +Integrating with [iyes_loopless] gives you some benefits of stageless +scheduling in current Bevy. Additionally, the loading of assets fields +without attributes was improved. It now uses the `FromWorld` trait +instead of `Default`. + +More improvements will likely follow for the dynamic asset story. One goal +is to allow loading any custom values as dynamic assets. + +[bevy_asset_loader]: https://github.com/NiklasEi/bevy_asset_loader +[@nikl_me]: https://twitter.com/nikl_me +[iyes_loopless]: https://github.com/IyesGames/iyes_loopless +[iyes_progress]: https://github.com/IyesGames/iyes_progress + ## Popular Workgroup Issues in Github
