world.rs

//! A world: its data, the systems built to run over it, and their schedule.
//!
//! The data half is components, resources, events, the compiled-payload store,
//! the frame profile, and the frame scratch -- exactly the five things a
//! [`PipelineContext`] borrows, owned in one place. Over it run the systems a
//! host's [`SystemTable`] gates in, in table order, under a schedule derived
//! from what each declares it touches.
//!
//! Building and running one needs no operating system: the two ties a step
//! would otherwise have are seams instead -- the [`Clock`] resource for the
//! per-system profile micros, and the debug-build access validator's hooks in
//! [`access_check`](crate::ecs::access_check).
