Le Serf

Your trusty assistant in your Lacuna Expanse misadventures!

Note: as of March 2016, this project is in "maintenance mode". This means I'll only keep it running rather than add new features. This is because I am no longer a player of The Lacuna Expanse. There are breaking server changes on the horizon and when they go live none of this will work anymore. Sadly, there's not much I can do.

Additional: as of October 2016 TLE will be offline. Therefore, Le Serf will not be needed anymore and will be taken offline, also.

Final: Le Serf has now been taken offline. Thanks for everything, folks.

Notes

Don't use ES6 Modules

Because I don't like them - CommonJS modules seem cleaner to me.

Don't use ES6 Classes to define React Components

Because they don't support mixins. ES6 Classes are being used for other things, though.

package.json

All dependencies for the web site are specified as devDependencies so that they don't get included in the published npm module.
