I'm an avid table-top gamer. I'm also a bit forgetful, and I lose things... especially little pieces of paper. Throw the fact that I'm a professional programmer into the mix, and you've pretty much got RPGKeeper. I wanted a site that allowed me to store all my characters digitally. I got something that worked for DnD... but DnD is a horrible system. ( Put your +1 Mace of Troll Smiting down. I don't mean from an RPG standpoint, I mean from a computer science standpoint. Or, more specifically, it's a system that revolves around exceptions to rules, not the rules themselves. The data model for DnD 4th Ed is so incredibly complex, I've crashed a UML program with it. It's a horrible system to try and model.) So I spent two month focused on that, without giving most of the UI enough love.
Then I decided to redo everything in node.js and Angular JS. Everything's going much better this time around, and slowly but surely I'm getting this to the point where I can use it. We're still a long way off from being able to release it to the public... but we're getting there. One new feature at a time.
Hahahahahaha.... you're funny.
No, seriously, there are no tests. I won't claim this is "untestable", but frankly, there's not a lot of testible code, and I want to implement features, not tests.
npm installnpm install -g grunt-cligrunt watchThat should be it!
Feel free to fork and make improvements. I'm pretty much open to anything.
