1//! This example illustrates the usage of the [`QueryData`] derive macro, which allows
2//! defining custom query and filter types.
3//!
4//! While regular tuple queries work great in most of simple scenarios, using custom queries
5//! declared as named structs can bring the following advantages:
6//! - They help to avoid destructuring or using `q.0, q.1, ...` access pattern.
7//! - Adding, removing components or changing items order with structs greatly reduces maintenance
8//!   burden, as you don't need to update statements that destructure tuples, care about order
9//!   of elements, etc. Instead, you can just add or remove places where a certain element is used.
10//! - Named structs enable the composition pattern, that makes query types easier to re-use.
11//! - You can bypass the limit of 15 components that exists for query tuples.
12//!
13//! For more details on the [`QueryData`] derive macro, see the trait documentation.
