Getting Started
This section will help you get started on your Bevy journey as quickly as possible. It will walk you through setting up your development environment and writing a simple Bevy app.
Quick Start #
If you want to dive in immediately and you already have a working Rust setup, feel free to follow this "quick start" guide. Otherwise, move on to the next page.
Note: the "fast compiles" setup is on the next page, so you might want to read that section first.
Try the Examples #
-
Clone the Bevy repo:
git clone https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy
-
Navigate to the new "bevy" folder
cd bevy
-
Switch to the correct Bevy version (as the default is the git main development branch)
# use the latest Bevy release git checkout latest # or a specific version git checkout v0.11.0
-
Try the examples in the examples folder
cargo run --example breakout
Add Bevy as a Dependency #
Bevy is available as a library on crates.io.
The easiest way to add it to your project is to use cargo add
:
cargo add bevy
Alternatively, you can manually add it to your project's Cargo.toml like this:
[dependencies]
bevy = "0.12" # make sure this is the latest version
