This project aims to rewrite my previous Acquire command line game into a webapp.
The web server will be realized by using the the asynchronous web framework Rocket.
To build and run the server do the following:
- Clone the repository and cd into the main directory
- Make sure that the
rust toolchainandwasm-packare installed - Run
./build_wasm.sh - Run
cargo run
This will start the server which can be accessed under 127.0.0.1:8000.
WebAssembly will be used to write as little JavaScript as possible. The Rust code that is compiled to WebAssembly can be found here.
The build_wasm.sh script is used to build the web assembly parts and copy the output files to /web/public/wasm. This way it is easy to update the files once the source code has been modified.
