Has anyone used Bevy ECS for backend / server-side architecture?

[arrietybeu]

Hi, I’m exploring whether the standalone bevy_ecs crate is a good fit for building a backend server (no rendering, no Bevy app).

I want to use ECS to manage player sessions and run server logic on a fixed tick loop.
Before I go deeper, I’d like to ask:

Has anyone used bevy_ecs for backend or server-side projects?

Are there any known limitations when using it outside the Bevy engine?

Is it a good choice compared to other ECS libraries like hecs or legion?

Any experience or advice would be appreciated. Thanks!
