In BevyEngine, which direction is up?

It isn't clear which coordinate system the engine uses.

I've tried looking through the documentation and the book.

The reference you want is in the Bevy Cheatbook: 3.1. Coordinate System.

  • X goes from left to right (+X is "right")
  • Y goes from bottom to top (+Y is "up")
  • Z goes from far to near (+Z is "toward the viewer")

The cheatbook goes on to add that "for UI, Bevy follows the same convention as most other UI toolkits, the Web, etc." in which Y begins at the top (+Y is "down").

There's a cool graphic to accompany the article, which I hope I'm allowed to share here: enter image description here
