Archetypes

Archetypes are bundles of components for which the Rerun viewer has first-class built-in support. When logged, each archetype also includes an indicator component which captures the intent of the logging code and triggers the activation of the corresponding visualizers. See Entities and Compponents and Visualizers and Overrides for more information.

This page lists all built-in archetypes.
