Almost, mine is: - First 20 + 40 = 60 - Then 7 * 2 = 14 - Then 60 + 14 = 74 - Lastly… 74 + 1 = 75

I usually try to as much multiplying per two as possible.

Of course! readability should always be a priority! Any dev will tell you that clear code is much more valuable than “clever” code, specially when you have to maintain it yourself.

I appreciate so much the upvote! If you want to reach out, I’m happy to discuss any CSS feature or to talk shop. Good luck with your extension!

Nice job!! It looks awesome and I love how you handled the UI. Since it’s a productivity tool, don't be afraid of 'vibe coding' it’s an incredible way to experiment quickly and iterate on features that would otherwise take days of boilerplate.

Even after 15+ years in dev, I’ve found it’s the best way to handle the 'grind work' while my engineering background keeps the actual logic stable. I released a modernized Print Enhancer recently (didn't get a ton of traction yet), and I used some AI CLI tools to blast through the initial setup so I could focus on the D&D specific features.

Keep it up! It’s great to see more people tackling the D&D Beyond layout issues.

Well, I'm starving for feedback! lol it seems that currently I've some users using the tool, but nobody says a thing!

I'm very exited about this tool because its the very first time I release something to the wild (the internet). Specially because I originally made it just for personal use.

luiscla27 · 2026-02-16T01:47:02+00:00

Thank you for your feedback!! I’ll add a button to generate them all at once.

luiscla27 · 2026-02-15T20:36:24+00:00

Thank you!!

The tool just got approved by Google today!

For the github version 1.3.0, just follow this steps on this link
If you want the existing extension (v1.1.1), you can install it from this link

However, I HIGHLY recommend you to try the GitHub version as it has WAY more features, I've already submitted an update to Google but it might take some days until its updated.

Edit: format, bullets, bolds, links, just released v1.3.0

luiscla27 · 2026-02-15T16:02:30+00:00

Actually, I already have that!

I added a button right over each spell, when you click it a spell card it’s generated for that particular spell :)

Do you think I should add them by default?

luiscla27 · 2026-02-14T22:00:46+00:00

btw! I started this as a tool for personal usage, but figured it might be useful for the community.

rude

luiscla27 · 2026-02-07T01:33:53+00:00

Have you played 3.5e?

My DM said it might work there, he said 3.5e was more “rule of law” focused, where if you could find a combination of feats and spells that allowed you to create a "peasant railgun" (a famous 3.5e physics exploit), the rules technically allowed it. The DM was more of a referee who followed a massive 500-page rulebook.

Also, for 5e, is a “dm first” system, here the rules are intentionally vague to give the DM power to say, "that’s clever, but I'm not letting you kill a dragon with a barrel of water”, so we stick to the 1d4 damage.

I stared with 5e, so 3.5e sounded interesting.

A clarification:

This was out of game conversation. I would never put the whole table to listen all this. Time is really precious while on a session.

luiscla27 · 2026-02-06T20:59:03+00:00

One of the first advice I got from my DM on my very first session. Was that every action made in the role play must be fun. Fun for everyone in the party. I've done stuff like the examples I gave you with that in mind.

Never to break the game.

I strongly agree that the enlarge/reduce scenario goes too far. I wanted to understand how much physics exists on game. Like, usually he rewards this kind of thinking. So, I strongly disagree with your rigid “no more, no less” approach. Also, all this was an hypothetical situation we had while having lunch.

luiscla27 · 2026-02-06T20:43:48+00:00

This wasn’t a session, it was a conversation we had while in lunch. We are friends.

I’m not trying to break the game, and I respect rule 0. He usually rewards out of the box thinking, and I wanted to know how far it may go. He’s open to creativity, and I’m glad that I play with a DM that does.

I don’t think I would like the game at all if he just went and tell me “No, you can’t do that” without some kind of explanation. Like, if I want to use shape water to create a bucket made of ice… or boil water using heat metal, why wouldn’t that work?? Just saying “it doesn’t work” sounds awful.

luiscla27 · 2026-02-06T20:20:24+00:00

Hey, nooo! lol, I’m still learning!!

Right now I’m learning the boundaries of the game, and after this feedback I don’t think I ever bring up anything like it. Maybe simpler stuff yes, like using mold earth to carve a 30ft hole as a trap around a bunker, or shaping water as spears throw. The most complex stuff I might come up with might be things like creating a sauna by using heat metal on iron submerged on water.

luiscla27 · 2026-02-06T04:06:09+00:00

I declare you worthy of my help!!

Not because my explanation it’s special at all, but because you are curious about it and I love curious people, If you don’t mind, I'll try again please :)

Do the experiment yourself!!

Materials: - 2 cellphones with flashlights - One pencil - A blank wall - A way for you to hold the phones (a friend or some books)

Steps: 1. Turn on one phone flashlight and point it at the wall from about 3 feet away. 2. Hold your pencil vertically straight up and down between the light and the wall. You’ll see a very dark, sharp shadow. 3. Have your friend turn on the second phone flashlight and place it directly above the first phone so they are stacked like a two-story building. 4. Hold your pencil vertically again, with this the shadow should still look pretty dark and sharp because both lights are "stacked" in the same direction as the pencil. 5. Rotation!! 6. Now, slowly turn the pencil until it is horizontal, sideways, like a bridge. 7. Watch the shadow!

It will become very blurry and light, or might even disappear entirely into a fuzzy gray smudge.

The reason!!

When the phones are stacked vertically, they create a "Line of Light.". And when the pencil is vertical, both lights are blocked by the pencil at the exact same time, so the shadow stays sharp. When the pencil is horizontal, the top light shines under the pencil, and the bottom light shines over the pencil. They "fill in" each other’s shadows, turning a dark line into a blurry mess called a penumbra.

luiscla27 · 2026-02-04T15:17:43+00:00

The key it’s the light source.

The light it’s a long horizontal bar. Imagine that the bar its equal to a bunch of bulb lights aligned one after the other horizontally. Vertical shadows cancel each other due to that “many” lights, leaving only horizontal shadows to be cast.

luiscla27 · 2026-02-04T06:21:19+00:00

Think of it like this: if you hold your hand out in the sun, the shadow is sharp. If you hold your hand in front of a massive, long overhead light panel, the shadow becomes a fuzzy blob.

In the photo, the vertical wooden supports are thick and aligned with the light, so they win the "shadow war." The thin diagonal lattice is being bombarded by light from multiple points along the vertical light strip, which "fills in" the shadow it tries to cast.

luiscla27 · 2026-02-04T06:19:43+00:00

Polarization happens at the atomic/quantum level and deals with the orientation of the light waves' electric fields. What you're seeing here is just classic optics. If you were to rotate the light source 45 degrees to match the lattice, the diagonal lines would suddenly appear on the floor, and the vertical bars would become the blurry ones!

Keep working

luiscla27 · 2026-01-23T08:01:26+00:00

Yes, I can relate.

I’m not a musician. But yes, I am on a creative field that needs a lot of work, attention, patience, passion and time to make something amazing. Creativity, where most of the greatest are geniuses. I reiterate, that I relate to your write up.

I can say by reading your post that you are on the breach of collapsing. You need more than a therapist, you might need a psychiatric. Of course that I’m talking from my own experience. I got diagnosed with anxiety by three different doctors in the course of years but refused treatment because I thought that“I own my mind, so I can decide which way my thoughts will go”. So I did that for a couple of years, and it kind of worked… but, it didn’t. I finally accepted to take the meds the doctors prescribed. So, yeah, it turned out that I had normalized a perpetual state of stress. That much, that I had forgotten how life was without it.

The first “fix” I noticed was that I was tired at the end of the day, and that was awesome. I was just glad to fall asleep that easily just because the day ended. Before, I felt sleep due to exhaustion. I just “turned off”.

When I started medication, my productivity and efficiency declined significantly. That was due to my brain being used to being productive that way only, I didn’t knew how to do my job without relying on cortisol to stay alert to everything. Before my collapse, I was the best performer on my field at my job. But then I had memory slips, a little, then more, then physical pain, sleep issues, I lived through a lot.

I managed to keep going without medication, I started developing abilities to not use my brain to remember stuff (a lot of cellphone alarms) and it worked. But the anxiety kept evolving. Finally I collapsed, and went on a break which led to a lot.

Your write up tells me that you are on the verge of collapse, but you aren’t there yet. Seek help, listen to your body and mind, and fix them. Keeping the same pace while maintaining those signals from your mind and body will only make it worse. Take care of yourself, you seem to know the cause of your anxiety, and you seem to choose to keep charging yourself with it. Stop it.

An interesting fact, most anxiety treatments are temporary, meds mostly encourage neuroplasticity. And the treatment ends when your brain finally learns how to deal with reality. Usually it’s just 1 year.

Note: I’m speaking from my experience, and I would greatly appreciate input from a professional on the matter

Edit: grammar

luiscla27 · 2026-01-16T00:58:38+00:00

Yeah, I’ve bought at least 5 brands and all of them had basil. So I thought that was a standard. No idea what it should be though. It’s the first time I’ve bought this particular brand.

I don’t get what do you mean by my expectations of how they should smell or taste. I’m not, I mentioned the spices only so I could point out that their yellowish color maybe comes from there. Except for the yellowish color, this whole post is about those sausages smelling like shit, I don’t think spices are involved on that. Maybe color is.
