About Snaps.js

Welcome to Snaps, the isometric JavaScript game engine.

Snaps is centered around plugins and comes with enough of them out of the box to snap together complete games.

It's currently being developed in tandem with an in-development game, so it's a little on the freshly-painted side.

It is however, marching at a pace towards v1.0.

For my own benefit

Here is a list of things that I will create pages for. Some simple use-cases and how to implement them in snaps.js
