Crate name

Closed this issue · 3 comments

Can we consider renaming this crate as long as it's not widely used yet? I find the name bevy_loading misleading, because loading is only one use case, while the functionality the crate offers is progress tracking in general. This can be applied to loading, but also to (terrain-) generation, connection, or simple task tracking.

How about bevy_progress_tracking?

I've thought about it, yeah.

Hmm, how would such a rename even be handled gracefully?

I guess release a new version under the old name, that just produces a compiler error telling ppl about the rename (and also a readme pointing to the rename). And then continue to squat the old name until someone has a better use for it and reaches out to ask for it.

That sounds reasonable to me, yes.

Done! The crate has been renamed to iyes_progress.
