This is a tiny crate that that adds the ability to load assets from http and https urls.

Supports both wasm (web-sys) and native.

This is nice if you want to keep your content on a server, even when developing
native games. Use cases can be:

- Tuning game balance post-launch
- Seasonal events (halloween theme etc.)
- Downloading dynamic content from 3rd party services (lospec, gltf repositories etc.)
- Sharing user-created assets/mods over some service (level editor etc.)
- Keeping initial download size small
- Testing with different online assets during development

## Usage

NOTE: You need to add the plugin before `AssetPlugin`:

```rust no_run
use bevy::prelude::*;
use bevy_web_asset::WebAssetPlugin;

fn main() {
    App::new()
        // The `WebAssetPlugin` must be inserted before the `AssetPlugin`
        .add_plugins((
            WebAssetPlugin::default(),
            DefaultPlugins
        ))
        // ...
        .run();
}
```

But using it is quite simple, just use http urls instead of regular asset paths.

```rust ignore
let font: Handle<Font> = asset_server.load("https://example.com/fonts/quicksand-light.ttf");
```

Or:

```rust ignore
commands.spawn(SpriteBundle {
    // Simply use a url where you would normally use an asset folder relative path
    texture: asset_server.load("https://johanhelsing.studio/assets/favicon.png"),
    ..default()
});
```

## Bevy version support

I intend to support the latest bevy release in the `main` branch.
