Adventure Alchemist is a tool designed to simplify and enhance the process of generating captivating dungeon scenarios for tabletop RPGs, including DnD campaigns. Whether you're a seasoned Dungeon Master or a curious player, this application empowers you to effortlessly create, save, and recall unique scenarios based on your preferences.

If you're looking for ways to change things up on your tabletop games, try us out!

🚀 Features:

  • Utilizes algorithms to create imaginative and engaging scenarios.
  • Considers factors such as dungeon theme, interior/exterior setting, size, monster types and difficulty for a more diverse experience.
  • Provides both dungeon masters and players with dynamic and invigorating scenarios.

🎯 Modern Approach:

The development of Adventure Alchemist represents a fusion of insights from previous projects and modern JavaScript techniques. Leveraging arrow functions, the codebase is characterized by concise and readable syntax, enhancing both clarity and maintainability.

Adventure Alchemist is organized into ES6 JavaScript modules, ensuring clean separation of concerns and streamlined maintenance. Modules for DOM manipulation, localStorage management, scenario generation, and user interactions contribute to reusability and easy collaboration.

🌐 Accessible and Open:

Adventure Alchemist originated as a commission and has been made public for the community to benefit from. The repository encourages exploration and collaboration, with the codebase thoughtfully organized and easily modifiable. Feel free to delve into the code, contribute, and customize it to your needs.

💭 Developer Notes:

This application has been a very fun journey, it was immensely entertaining coming up with a variety of scenarios. Most fun was coming up with a framework on how Adventure Alchemist would work, a lot of that development came from back and forth conversations between with the client and I. There's a few more memorable moments I'm taking away from this app, such as troubleshooting and fixing issues with localStorage and adhering to modern techniques by using ES6 modules.

🙏 Thank You!

For your interest in Adventure Alchemist. I hope this tool enriches your RPG experiences and adds a spark of creativity to your campaigns. Take a moment to explore the repository, and don't hesitate to share your feedback or contribute to the project. Happy coding!

Running Locally

Because Adventure Alchemist is using ES6 Modules, the app WILL NOT function if you use Open in Browser (VSCode)

So to run the app locally, you can use a tool like http-server. If you haven't already installed it, you can install it globally using npm:

npm install -g http-server

After installing, navigate to the root directory of Adventure Alchemist and run the following command:

http-server -p 3000 --cors --module

This will start an HTTP server that serves Adventure Alchemist on port 3000. You can then access the app by opening your web browser and navigating to http://localhost:3000.

Please note that the provided command assumes you have Node.js and npm installed on your system.
