-What is IDrawableComponent? An IDrawableComponent is an interface that lets Encompass know that the Component includes a *Layer* property, which is used for rendering.

 Finally, that method is called a *constructor*. When we create an instance of Texture2DComponent, we will assign it a Texture2D that has stuff drawn on it and tell it which layer to use. We'll get to all that in a minute.

 Notice that this is a *class* instead of a struct, like we have done before. There are many reasons why you might want to use classes vs structs in C# in general, but for our purposes, you can use the following rule of thumb: if the object contains data, it should be a struct. If it contains logic, it should be a class. Since Renderers draw things (logic), they are classes.
 
-An *OrderedRenderer* is defined by the Component type it tracks and a *Render* method. It uses the *Layer* property of the specified Component to draw things in the correct order. Each time *World.Draw* is called, the OrderedRenderer will run its *Render* method for each Entity that contains a Component of its specified tracking type.
-
 The most efficient way for us to draw Texture2Ds is to use FNA's SpriteBatch system. If you actually care about how SpriteBatch works and why we need to structure our draws using it, read the Note section below. Otherwise feel free to just skip ahead.

 First of all, when we construct the Texture2DRenderer, we will pass in a SpriteBatch instance. Simple enough.
 
-Our *Render* method will run exactly once for each Texture2DComponent that lives in our world. It also gives us a reference to the Entity that each specific Texture2DComponent is attached to. The *in* keyword means that the textureComponent is accessed by reference, but cannot be modified. We shouldn't ever be changing the data of a component inside a Renderer, because that is not the Renderer's job. So the method requires us to use the *in* keyword here.
