Garnet

Garnet is intentionally minimal, acting as a library rather than a framework, which allows developers to retain full control over game-specific logic without engine bloat, as emphasized in the Philosophy section.

Uses struct-based components and pooled storage to minimize allocations and garbage collection spikes, with data-oriented iteration over dense segments for fast processing, as detailed in the Components and Storage sections.

Combines ECS for shared state management and actor-like messaging for isolated, parallel processing, offering flexibility in game architecture, which is a unique feature highlighted in the Introduction and Actors sections.

Supports arbitrary event types for decoupled communication and coroutines for sequenced logic, enabling complex timing behaviors without tight coupling, as explained in the Systems and Coroutines sections.
