# Workflow: UI
|
|
|
|
The workflow goes as follows (once you got your Bevy code setup)
|
|
|
|
## Bevy side
|
|
- create & register all your components you want to be able to set from the Blender side (this is basic Bevy, no specific work needed)
|
|
- follow the instructions in the [bevy_registry_export](./crates/bevy_registry_export/) to generate a registry export
|
|
|
|
## Component creation
|
|
|
|
Setup the Blender [bevy_components](./tools/bevy_components/README.md) add-on
|
|
to add & edit your components visually & reliably
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Exporting to gltf
|
|
|
|
- export your level as a glb/gltf file :
|
|
- using Blender's default gltf exporter
|
|
!!**IMPORTANT** you need to check the following:
|
|
- custom properties
|
|
- cameras & lights if you want a complete level (as in this example)
|
|
|
|
- or much better, using [gltf_auto_export](./tools/gltf_auto_export/)
|
|
|
|
## Now use your gltf files in Bevy
|
|
|
|
- load it in Bevy (see the various examples for this)
|
|
- you should see the components attached to your entities in Bevy
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
> note: you get a warning if there are any unregistered components in your gltf file (they get ignored)
|
|
you will get a warning **per entity**
