+Your entire game is stored inside a Bevy [`App`], which is responsible for running the main game loop and storing the main [`World`].
+The [`World`] stores all of the App's state — [Entities], [Components], [Resources], and [Systems].

+## Apps
+
+{% todo() %}
+
+* explain what the app does
+* example `main()` function
+
+{% end %}
+
+## Worlds
+
+{% todo() %}
+
+* explain what the world does
+* vaguely explain how the world actually stores entities and components? maybe too early for that
