Architecture

Raven is structured as a layered engine. Each layer depends only on the layers below it, forming a bottom-up architecture.

This separation keeps subsystems decoupled and allows individual components to be developed and tested independently.

Engine Layers

Layer	Role
RavenCore	Platform abstraction, logging, memory management, core utilities
Crux	Math library (vectors, matrices, quaternions), ECS, reflection
Pulsar	Physics interface built on Jolt
Illumine	Vulkan-based rendering backend
Framework	Application runtime, scene management, editor/runtime integration
