User interface #5

Open mbg opened 4 years ago

mbg commented 4 years ago

We need a UI for the game:

Maybe initially we could have a terminal-based interface that has some kind of main menu; allows deck creation (incl. saving and loading);
Could later be web- or bot-based using e.g. scotty or servant for web and e.g. calamity or discord-haskell for Discord or slack-web for Slack.

A web based frontend (either built with TypeScript & React, or just pure JS & HTML) would be the simplest way to get a GUI going - but a terminal UI can be achieved with the brick library, among others.

For the frontend, one possible route (rather than going all in with something like React) would be to just use a HTML5 canvas. I did that for the large arithmetic collider lecture demo (with the Slack bot).

I get interested in this project. Now I'm developing chat-application with electron as frontend-app. Of course the accessibility of browser base is so convenient, but electron make it easy to distribute package, IMO. First of all, I also think that CUI is necessary, I'll try it.
