Add components & systems

NanoForge games are built from ECS components and systems. You can author your own or pull ready-made ones from the registry.

Create your own

Create a component

nf create component --name Position

Files are created under the client’s component directory by default. Target the server with --server.

Create a system

nf create system --name Movement --server

See nf create for all options.

To reuse components, systems, or libraries published to the NanoForge registry:

# a component or system
nf install my-org/health-bar

# a library, on the server
nf add my-org/physics --lib --server

If the package lives in a private scope, log in first:

nf login --api-key <your-api-key>

See nf install for the full reference.
