An experimental code-first creative coding environment for Bevy.

The idea here is to mix the benefits of node based visual programming with both scripting and Rust:

• Visual programming is great for quick iteration, as well as being able to see the effects of building up a

graph of nodes that operate on each other. In other words, visual programming is best when it's used for defining data flow in the application, as well as setting constant parameters or quickly testing out a change.

• Scripting should be used for the bulk of programmatic logic. While many applications allow scripts to be attached to

nodes via the UI, scripting should be first class, meaning that we define the graph in scripts. Updates in scripts always take precedence over updates in the ui. Currently scripts are written in Steel, a scheme dialect.

• The Rust codebase that defines the engine should be open and extensible. Users can add new types of behavior directly

without having to deal with loading plugins, etc. They compile their final application for distribution.
