Building a tool
Building a tool
Hopefully I'm not breaking any rules about self promotion or any other nonsense. If so let me know and I will either modify or remove.
I have recently found myself unemployed and I am going through and trying to work with a new programming stack that I haven't worked with in the past. Not sure what I am going to do with it yet, but I was hoping that there might be some people who are interested in trying it out.
In the past I have utilized other tools for tracking the content of my worlds, but I never found one that really worked for me. The last one that I ended up working with was worldanvil. The tools is amazing.... but, I found myself spending more time trying to make things look better than actually writing content. So here is my crack at things, you can register and poke around, if you have any thoughts for things that you would like to see let me know, not sure if I'm going to fully stand it up as a hosted things or maybe dump it as a docker container.
Thoughts and feedback would be greatly appreaciated.
I don’t have feedback on the tools, but as an SEO I am going to be honest and say that CSS needs to be tightened up a lot. Your button layout on mobile very difficult to read and discern what’s going on.
After your explanation here and looking at the page you created, I’m still not entirely sure what you’re trying make and test.
Are you trying to create a content management tool to make it easy to look up notes for your campaigns? Is this a place to store links? Is it meant to house player sheets?
Thanks for the feedback. The initial page will be going away pretty quickly, it's why I didn't spend much time on it. I will be replacing it with a real CMS here in a couple of days. I haven't gotten to any of the mobile view, but I made sure that I went with tailwind so that working with the break points will be a lot easier. I'm mostly a backend dev so this is the first time that I'm starting from 'scratch' (leaning heavily copy pasta style).
It's a content management and sharing system, I have been using world anvil for a while and really like it but I spend way more time working on getting all of my images to look right than working on content. Additionally I am to the place where I am wanting to break off some of my content to make it available for me to run in smaller adventures for play testing. I figured that if it's a problem that I have some others probably have it too.
Thank you for the feedback. I will make sure that I do some mobile testing to tighten it up.
