Repository files navigation

Quickly check if if any of your friends on Xbox are online. Designed for mobile, but also works on desktop.

Designed to be fast; with no javascript, hardly any css, and even less html. Page loads may be slow because api requests need to be made sequentially, and need to be re-run each time for the most up-to-date information.

The root page is only there for you to be able to search for your friends list by gamertag. Once you are redirected to a page with a xuid query, you can save that page for later use.

Running

.env.local requires a XBLIO_SECRET. These can be created at https://xbl.io.

yarn && yarn build && yarn start

Development

yarn && yarn watch & yarn dev

TODO

  • Add fallbacks for profile pictures that fail to load on the DOM

  • Alphabetize the friends list

    • Add more sorting functions
  • Add an option to downscale images before they are loaded by the user. This is useful because the raw images are quite large and take a while to load.

  • Find a faster API
