This will allow you to make your pntr_app games in javascript, on the web. This way, you can try out & share ideas quickly, and you can easily port your game to C later, if you want (for native + web.)
Here is a codepen-template you can use.
<script type="module" src="https://konsumer.js.org/pntr_app_web/pntr_app.js" ></script>
<pntr-app>
<script type="pntr">
let font
// called when it first starts
async function init (app) {
font = pntr_load_font_default()
}
// called on each frame
function update (app, screen) {
pntr_clear_background(screen, PNTR_BLACK)
pntr_draw_text(screen, font, "Congrats! You created your first pntr_app!", 35, 100, PNTR_DARKGRAY)
}
// called on input/file-drop events
function event(app, event) {
console.log('event', event)
}
// called on exit (which never really happens in a practical sense)
function close (app) {
pntr_unload_font(font)
}
return {
init,
update,
close,
event,
width: 400,
height: 225
}
</script>
</pntr-app>All of these callbacks are optional.
You don't need to do this yourself in general (output is in docs/) but here is what I do to compile it from scratch:
npm run build
If you want to just run it locally, you can do this instead:
npm start
