OpenChart is a free, open source, web-based tool for creating rhythm game charts and maps. OpenChart is currently in active development.

We plan to add support for the following games:

You can view the editor here: http://openchart.io/

Motivation

The primary goal for OpenChart is to create an editor which is:

Easy to use
Open source
Available for all platforms
Supports several rhythm games
Supports n-key charting (4k, 6k, 7k, etc.)

There are several other bullet points that could be added but it really just boils down to this: Provide the community with a transparent, accessible editor that makes it easy to share charts/maps between games.

Getting Started

Prereq's

You will need:

Node
- v14 is preferred but other versions will likely work
yarn
Docker

Setup

The only setup that needs to be done is to install the dependencies:

yarn

Serving Files Locally

The preferred method is to use Docker and serve the files through nginx. There are issues using parcel serve, mainly due to the fact that noteskins are copied to the dist/ dir manually.

Start by opening two terminals. The first will watch and rebuild for changes:

yarn watch

The second will run nginx and serve the files at http://localhost:8000/

docker run \
    --rm \
    -v "`pwd`/dist:/usr/share/nginx/html:ro" \
    -p "8000:80" \
    nginx
