//! This example illustrates the different ways you can employ component lifecycle hooks.
//!
//! Whenever possible, prefer using Bevy's change detection or Events for reacting to component changes.
//! Events generally offer better performance and more flexible integration into Bevy's systems.
//! Hooks are useful to enforce correctness but have limitations (only one hook per component,
//! less ergonomic than events).
//!
//! Here are some cases where components hooks might be necessary:
//!
//! - Maintaining indexes: If you need to keep custom data structures (like a spatial index) in
//! sync with the addition/removal of components.
//!
//! - Enforcing structural rules: When you have systems that depend on specific relationships
//! between components (like hierarchies or parent-child links) and need to maintain correctness.
