Overview: “Entity-Component System Design Patterns”
Entity-Component System Design Patterns presents a comprehensive and rigorous exploration of the ECS architectural paradigm, serving as an authoritative resource for both practitioners and researchers in software and game engineering. The book begins by establishing a strong theoretical foundation, tracing the evolution of ECS from its origins and contrasting its principles with those of object-oriented and functional programming. Readers are guided through essential ECS concepts—including entities, components, and systems—while formalizing design goals such as decoupling, data locality, and composition over inheritance. The taxonomy of ECS patterns is surveyed in detail, highlighting key storage models and the data-oriented nature that makes ECS uniquely suited to modern computing hardware.
