examples.gradle

/* This is where all tasks for example usages of Slope-ECS go.
 *
 * When creating an example usage, a task must be created for the program here, following the
 * provided template.
 *
 * For those of you aspiring to make examples, give it your best effort! Remember, we require clean
 * code in order for the example to be accepted -- try to make the program relatively easy to
 * understand, execute, and (if it's a game) play through.
 *
 * This is heavily based on RichTextFX's demos implementation, so give them a look-see when you get
 * a chance: https://github.com/FXMisc/RichTextFX */
