Hi @andreas-wolf can you prepare a PR that mabee adds a little block here: https://github.com/amethyst/specs/blob/master/docs/tutorials/src/13_saveload.md which says: `feature = ["serde"] is needed for saveload to work.
Unluckily ouir api also doesnt mention it on the structs itself, as the check is on the module: https://github.com/amethyst/specs/blob/master/src/lib.rs#L202 though tbh it kind of mentions it directly in the api doc that its going to use specs
We might be able to use this https://doc.rust-lang.org/rustdoc/unstable-features.html#doc_auto_cfg-automatically-generate-doccfg
Also see here for examples of how to only enable the necessary nightly feature when docs.rs is building the docs: https://stackoverflow.com/a/61417700
Description
The saveload documentation states:
saveload is a module that provides mechanisms to serialize and deserialize a World, it makes use of the popular [serde](https://docs.rs/serde) library and requires the feature flag serde to be enabled for specs in your Cargo.toml file.
The API documentation does not mention this fact, but it was at least for me the first google search hit when I got
unresolved import specs::saveload
. Maybe it would even be worth it to add the information to the Troubleshooting sectionMotivation
I had to search quite a long time to find that information. I assume I'm not the only person to search the API than to read the tutorial.
Drawbacks
