This section is actually mostly empty since I tried to keep the dependencies to a minimum. That said, there are some projects that made my life a lot easier:
Mostly, I wanted to experiment with some ideas I had about how to create a game engine. I also wanted to learn more about TypeScript and how to use it to create a library.
But also, I really like the idea of giving back to the community. God knows how much I've learned from the open source community. So I thought it would be nice to create something that could help others.
First of all, I love Asimov's Foundation series. Seriously, go read it right now if you haven't already.
Secondly, Asimov created entire worlds with just a few words. I wanted to create a tiny engine that could be used to create games with just a few lines of code. So I thought the name was fitting and a nice tribute to the author.
To get a local copy up and running follow these simple example steps.
This is an example of how to list things you need to use the software and how to install them.
- Install pnpm folowing the instructions here
-
Create new project if you haven't already. I like vite for this, but you can use whatever you want.
pnpx create-vite my-project --template vanilla-ts
-
Install asimov-ts
pnpm add @asimov-ts/core @asimov-ts/web
That's it! You can now start using the engine.
Please refer to this project to see how to use asimov-ts to create a sort of complete game.
This was created mostly for learning and fun. That said, it would be great if you could contribute to this project.
If you have a suggestion that would make this better, please fork the repo and create a pull request. You can also simply open an issue with the tag "enhancement". Don't forget to give the project a star! Thanks again!
