 | 
						|
Just a stupidly fast Entity Component System
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
-   [Entity Relationships](https://ajmmertens.medium.com/building-games-in-ecs-with-entity-relationships-657275ba2c6c) as first class citizens
 | 
						|
-   Iterate 800,000 entities at 60 frames per second
 | 
						|
-   Type-safe [Luau](https://luau-lang.org/) API
 | 
						|
-   Zero-dependency package
 | 
						|
-   Optimized for column-major operations
 | 
						|
-   Cache friendly [archetype/SoA](https://ajmmertens.medium.com/building-an-ecs-2-archetypes-and-vectorization-fe21690805f9) storage
 | 
						|
-   Rigorously [unit tested](https://github.com/Ukendio/jecs/actions/workflows/unit-testing.yaml) for stability
 | 
						|
 | 
						|

### Example
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```lua
 | 
						|
local world = jecs.World.new()
 | 
						|
local pair = jecs.pair
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
-- These components and functions are actually already builtin
 | 
						|
-- but have been illustrated for demonstration purposes
 | 
						|
local ChildOf = world:component()
 | 
						|
local Name = world:component()
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
local function parent(entity)
 | 
						|
    return world:target(entity, ChildOf)
 | 
						|
end
 | 
						|
local function getName(entity)
 | 
						|
    return world:get(entity, Name)
 | 
						|
end
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
local alice = world:entity()
 | 
						|
world:set(alice, Name, "alice")
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
local bob = world:entity()
 | 
						|
world:add(bob, pair(ChildOf, alice))
 | 
						|
world:set(bob, Name, "bob")
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
local sara = world:entity()
 | 
						|
world:add(sara, pair(ChildOf, alice))
 | 
						|
world:set(sara, Name, "sara")
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
print(getName(parent(sara)))
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
for e, name in world:query(Name, pair(ChildOf, alice)) do
 | 
						|
    print(name, "is the child of alice")
 | 
						|
end
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
-- Output
 | 
						|
-- "alice"
 | 
						|
-- bob is the child of alice
 | 
						|
-- sara is the child of alice
 | 
						|
```
