- lll-o-lll 2y agoWhy “canonical”? From what I can see, Entity-Component-System (ECS), long pre-date this blog series by Eric, and he doesn’t even reference the term. I did enjoy the read however! My own programming has evolved towards data oriented design over the years.
- fargle 2y agowow! that is a great reference. i've only found it summited a few times and only with comments here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10567360 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10567360. not a lot of comments and i suspect somewhat missing the point because this submission started with part 5, which intentionally is only part of the series exposing the pros/cons, limitations, etc. of various approaches.
