    // For example, the next line will load "ROOT/assets/models/cube/cube.gltf#Mesh0/Primitive0",
    // where "ROOT" is the directory of the Application.
    //
    // This can be overridden by setting the "CARGO_MANIFEST_DIR" environment variable (see
    // https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/environment-variables.html)
    // to another directory. When the Application is run through Cargo, "CARGO_MANIFEST_DIR" is
    // automatically set to your crate (workspace) root directory.

    if let Some(sphere) = meshes.get(&sphere_handle) {
        // You might notice that this doesn't run! This is because assets load in parallel without
        // blocking. When an asset has loaded, it will appear in relevant Assets<T>
        // collection.

    // blocking

    // Then any asset in the folder can be accessed like this:
    let monkey_handle = asset_server.get_handle("models/monkey/Monkey.gltf#Mesh0/Primitive0");

    // You can also add assets directly to their Assets<T> storage:

    // cube
    commands.spawn(PbrBundle {

        transform: Transform::from_xyz(0.0, 0.0, 0.0),
        ..default()

    // sphere

        material: material_handle,

    // light
    commands.spawn(PointLightBundle {
        transform: Transform::from_xyz(4.0, 5.0, 4.0),
        ..default()
    });
    // camera
