bevy_simple_rich_text

A tiny, unambitious rich text helper for bevy_ui with a simple bbcode-inspired syntax.

Usage

// Register style tags by spawning `StyleTag` with `TextFont`, `TextColor`,
// and any other arbitrary Component.
commands.spawn((
    StyleTag::new("lg"),
    TextFont {
        font_size: 40.,
        ..default()
    },
));
commands.spawn((
    StyleTag::new("fancy"),
    TextColor(Color::hsl(0., 0.9, 0.7)),
    FancyText,
));

// And use them
commands.spawn(RichText::new("[lg]Hello [lg,fancy]World"));

Performance

Modifying a RichText completely rebuilds the TextSpans, so it's probably pretty slow.

But you can attach arbitrary marker components to styles to achieve fast animations.
