scenehåndterer

A scenehåndterer, often translated as "scene manager" or "scene handler," is a fundamental component in many software applications, particularly in game development, virtual reality, augmented reality, and graphical user interfaces. Its primary role is to manage the different states or "scenes" within an application. A scene represents a distinct visual or functional area of the application, such as a main menu, a gameplay level, a settings screen, or an advertisement.

The scenehåndterer is responsible for loading, unloading, and transitioning between these scenes. When a user interacts with the application in a way that requires a change of context, the scenehåndterer orchestrates this change. This typically involves deactivating the current scene, releasing its resources, and then activating the new scene, loading its assets and setting up its environment. This ensures that only the relevant content is active and consuming resources at any given time, optimizing performance and memory usage.

In more complex applications, a scenehåndterer might also be responsible for managing shared resources that persist across scenes, such as global game state, audio managers, or network connections. It acts as a central point of control for the application's overall structure and flow, providing a clear separation of concerns between different parts of the application. This modular approach makes development, debugging, and maintenance more manageable.
