(Yet Another) X-Wing Miniatures Squad Builder

NOTE: This builder is for First Edition ONLY! There is a fork for Second Edition.

Build Status

What?

This is a squad builder for Fantasy Flight Games' X-Wing Miniatures game, completely in HTML and JavaScript. No backend is necessary. It can theoretically be dropped into any existing site, but since it uses a lot of styling from Twitter Bootstrap it may require some CSS trickery if you're using some other incompatible framework (e.g. Foundation).

Can I save squads or share them on $SOCIAL_NETWORK?

Saving: yes, if you provide a backend that adheres to the API. See my X-Wing Backend project for an example. Sharing, no.

Aren't there other squad builders out there already?

Yes.

So...?

I wanted a project to work on and screw around with stuff like HAML and Bootstrap and Select2, etc.

When will this be done?

It's an ongoing process.

Building

  1. Install Node.js to get npm.
  2. sudo npm install -g grunt-cli to install the global Grunt CLI.
  3. npm install to install the dependencies listed in package.json.
  4. grunt to build everything into the app directory. The builder is at app/index.html.

Testing

npm test
