Bevy Remote Inspector

A remote inspector for Bevy game engine, allowing you to inspect and modify entities in real-time. Alternative to bevy-inspector-egui.

Features

• Entity hierarchy tree view, including drag and drop to update parent-child relationships.
• Inspector showing entity's components and their properties, including adding/removing components. Capable of rendering and editing deeply nested Rust types (custom serialization/deserialization types may not work as expected).
• Allow to toggle components on/off (work by temporarily removing the component from the entity).
• Automatically reconnect when your Bevy app restarts.
