or from the outside (or from an exclusive system) by directly using World methods:

| Spawn an entity with components | Commands::spawn | — |
| Spawn an entity without components | Commands::spawn_empty | World::spawn_empty |
| Despawn an entity | EntityCommands::despawn | World::despawn |
| Insert a component, bundle, or tuple of components and bundles to an entity | EntityCommands::insert | EntityMut::insert |
| Remove a component, bundle, or tuple of components and bundles from an entity | EntityCommands::remove | EntityMut::remove |
