Bevy Engine
Bevy is a refreshingly simple data-driven game engine built in Rust. In Bevy, all engine and game logic uses Bevy ECS, a custom Entity Component System, the fastest ECS according to some benchmarks. With Bevy you can create and render 2D using sprite sheets, dynamic texture atlases, cameras, textures, and materials and extend the capability of the engine with custom shaders, materials, and render pipelines. It also allows you to create 3D games with a modern and flexible 3D renderer with lights, cameras, meshes, textures, materials, gltf loading custom shaders, materials, and render pipelines. The game engine is developed and released as open source software under the MIT License.
Vite.js
Vite provides next generation tooling for frontend JavaScript development. It allows users to enjoy an instant server start with on demand file serving over native ESM, without required bundling. This allows Vite to be extremely fast when compare to traditionally bundled solutions like Webpack, Yarn and Rollup. Vite also provides lightning fast HMR (Hot Module Reload) that remains performant regardless of application or project size.
DDEV
