In the first 2 weeks of going live, there were over 200,000 unique visitors to the map. This equated to over 43,000,000 HTTP requests, of which 38,500,000 (~2.4TB of data) were cached by Cloudflare.

What can you do to help?

If you notice anything missing or have any improvements please create a pull request of your changes, or link me to your forked repo. Or if you're not experienced with Javascript and Github, create a ticket or message me on reddit with in game screenshots.

You can also help with translating the project into other languages. We use a translation editor called Crowdin, you can find our project page here. Crowdin offers an easy to use interface so you don't have to be familiar with Git or Github.

How do I contribute code changes?

Ensure you have git and Node.js installed.

After cloning the repository run the following commands:

  1. npm install (downloads dependencies for the project from NPM and builds the project to the dist/ folder.)

  2. grunt build (download & extracts map files, lints markup/js/css/json, creates vendor bundle, minifies js/css, builds the dist folder)

  3. grunt server (runs a local webserver listening on port 80 in the background and watches files for changes. Open your web browser to http://localhost)

Optional: grunt rebuild (same thing as build but doesn't download the maps again.)
