This is the very, very, early stages of an entity component system for Mach. It's not ready for any real use, but rather is a starting point for further development.

This spawned after this research issue in which I got tons of great information, tips, etc. and after much more research after that discussion this is what I've landed on initially. I'm positive this will change dramatically in the coming weeks/months, the idea is to use this just as a starting point and continue molding it into what we want.

As development continues..

I've created a room in the Matrix server for anyone who wants to chat
We can file and discuss in GitHub issues.
I'll be maintaining a blog detailing everything I've learned, how this system is changing, etc. (I plan to do for all of Mach so that anyone can have a truly deep understanding of 100% of it.)
