Difference to bevy_assets_loader

bevy_assets_extensions is heavily inspired by bevy_asset_loader. The main limitation of bevy_asset_loader is that it defines collection as bevy Resource, which allow only one collection of a given type to be loaded at a given time. This works fine for games with a static structure, but it fails to scale to game with larger world needing a more dynamic structure. In bevy_assets_extensions, bundles are defines as Asset which allow multiple variant of the same collection to be loaded.
