1. What is Textengine?

   Textengine is an opensource engine for interactive books and text quests. Now it's very raw but in future I'll improve it. Textengine you can get here: Textengine repo

2. How can I make my own book?

   Textengine engine uses standard json files. For the book to be fully operational, 3 files are needed: - data.json - info.json - icon.png The data.json file should contain a sequence of 5 groups:

   [
     {
   	"0": "// here is the text data"
     },
     {
   	"0": "// here is the inscription on the 1st button"
     },
     {
   	"0": "// here is the inscription on the 2nd button"
     },
     {
   	"0": "// transition parameter when pressing the 1st button"
     },
     {
   	"0": "// transition parameter when pressing the 2nd button"
     }
   ]

   The info.json file should have 2 parameters:

   {
   	"name": "// book name",
   	"author": "// author's name”
   }

   Important: when entering text parameters in json files DO NOT use quotation marks, otherwise the application will fall with an error “malformed json”
