GitHub

bevy_cli v0.1.0-alpha.2

crate_release

The Bevy CLI is a command-line tool hacked on by the bevy_cli working group that streamlines work on projects. This release includes key improvements such as:

  • Automatically configuring the correct getrandom backend when building a project for the web
  • Easily listing and installing specific versions of the Bevy Linter
  • Unstable support for enabling web multi-threading, useful when depending on crates like bevy_seedling
  • Faster compile times and improved template support by relying on cargo-generate in its executable form, rather than bundling it as a library
  • Many bug fixes, small quality-of-life changes, and documentation improvements

You can find the live documentation for this release here. You may also be interested in the changelog and the migration guide.

You can install the CLI using:

cargo install --git https://github.com/TheBevyFlock/bevy_cli --tag cli-v0.1.0-alpha.2 --locked bevy_cli
