Credits

  • https://github.com/HeroCreationLab/hero-creation-tool (by ccjmk on discord) was the original inspiration for Actor Studio and the development of Actor Studio as a spiritual successor to Hero Creation Tool has been blessed by that original creator. Actor Studio still contains some of the excellent original code from HCT, where it wasn't necesarry to refactor it for Svelte reactivity. This footprint may change over time but as of writing:
    • the module settings application and config
    • the button creation code for the main buttons in the sidebar and new actor dialog
    • some of the indexing code for fetching items from compendia
    • and of course the visual layout is not dissimilar to the original
