Incredible that every few years, the web seems to re-invent itself with some pretty mind-blowing capabilities. This is the start of one of those periods https://t.co/XBVelSlOtN

Sunday Side Project (vol. 10)

Found myself doing a lot more planning and prep lately from a tablet for our #DnD game. Working on making that a tad bit easier.

[Adam B. Becker @adambbecker]

Sunday Side Project (vol. 9)

Continuing on with the live portion of our little #DnD build. Working on the most important part, the gif picker.

... although, we're converting them to .webm (saves like 70-80% file size) via a cloud function. So maybe it's a webm picker?

@EBCornell Me too :)

Sunday Side Project (vol. 8)

Sneak peak of what's coming soon to a #DnD crew near... well just me for now. Should help automate some of the more time consuming things I do as a DM, while allowing the players to do more interactive things (like sharing gifs).

Sunday Side Project (vol. 7)

Just playing around today. Exploring aesthetics of old, matched with some characters I've been playing with for years.

Still can't believe what a blast #CSS is these days... Especially when paired with #DnD

Sunday Side Project (vol. 6)

Seven years later, new personal site. These are always simultaneously fun and terrifying to work on. Went with a "cover page" variation this time.

Sunday Side Project (vol. 5)

These have turned about to be more "aspirational" than frequent, but my players recently split the party pretty epically to tackle different goals in our campaign. As such, we'll bringing back good old recaps.

Sunday Side Project (vol. 4)

Thinking about more asynchronous (outside the game) stuff for our little D&D game. A longer lived site might be in order.

Features (thinking about):
- Maps
- Lore
- Recaps
- Player journals
- Name generators

[Adam B. Becker @adambbecker]

Sunday Side Project (vol. 3)

Continuing on with this all digital D&D format we're playing in. Still going strong, 9 of us! Lookin' into some live player stuff.

Features:
- Battle maps (made w/ @inkarnaterpg )
- Live tokens (synced w/ @Firebase )

Sunday Side Project (vol. 2)

Making progress with a handheld DM helper app. Mainly for me to remember things. Excited to hook it all up.

Features:
- Session planner
- Art backgrounds
- Initiative tracker
- Monster roller

Sunday Side Project (vol. 1)

Been DM'ing a D&D campaign the past year and a half. Believe it's high time we start makin' some apps for it.

First steps:
- Design system
- Wallpaper

#DnD #MaterialTheme

@JustinMezzell @charlespattson Amazing! Killer setup. What's the software controlling the map? (digging the map style too)

[Adam B. Becker @adambbecker]

@jeffgolenski Haha, HEY! All good man. Currently enjoying a nice spring time Sip of Sunshine from Lawson’s Liquids, reminiscing about being oh-so familiar with home offices ;)

[Adam B. Becker @adambbecker]

@createbang Break a... pen? 🤷 Good luck!

[Adam B. Becker @adambbecker]

Spent the last 10 mins trying to hide a dropdown by watching nested document click events... Remembered tabindex & onblur, problem solved; & got an accessible interface.

[Adam B. Becker @adambbecker]

@boonerang There's gotta be a banana... *Ahem* Wall stand around here somewhere

[Adam B. Becker @adambbecker]

@dmsnell23 That is awesome, what did you use for the sketching part? Also that save to media library is clever, nice!
