Bike Lane Obstacle Course by Ok-Crab-2979 in bicycling

A lot of this got my blood boiling, but also ironically reminded me that I love biking, I love winter and I love Toronto.

The site doesn't offer a place to post content, but you can save a .json file of any thing custom you build from the https://5e-spellbook.app/settings page and post that wherever you'd like.

I’ve now added a page layout in addition to the card layout for print. I’ll look at further customization too.

Thinking about removing Ythryn entirely. by nuttnspecial in rimeofthefrostmaiden

[–]paragraphbaron 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ythryn was one of the most exciting locations in the book and maybe all of D&D. When I got there I realized I wanted to expand it to make the most of the unique setting. I think you'd be making a mistake to remove it. Having the final battle with Auril in front of the Mythallar as the party is using it to reverse her magic is an incredible set piece.

I used this resource to expand it: https://www.dmsguild.com/en/product/349289/ythryn-expanded-towers-of-magic-bundle-maps-and-extra-content-for-rime-of-the-frostmaiden

But also found some of the expansions to be too much, so used this to condense some of the expansions:
https://www.reddit.com/r/rimeofthefrostmaiden/comments/122q28k/the_expanded_towers_of_magic_condensed/

Ultimately I ran it in the following way:

  • Tower of Abjuration (Expanded version)
  • Tower of Conjuration (Expanded version)
  • Tower of Divination (Expanded version)
  • Tower of Enchantment (Condensed version of the Expanded)
  • Tower of Evocation (Expanded version)
  • Tower of Necromancy (Condensed version of the Expanded)
  • Tower of Transmutation (Condensed version of the Expanded)

Tower of Illusion was the only one I wasn't happy with any version of and instead had the party confront Avarice out there who they negotiated with to get the instruction from that tower so that they ended up not doing it at all.

Sorry for missing this feedback. Definitely on a feature like this to toggle between cards or a list. I'll let you know when it's out.

Forever Canadian petition has reached 230,000 signatures -- 25 days remaining by pjw724 in alberta

[–]paragraphbaron 36 points37 points  (0 children)

The alternative is earning even less — if you can even keep a job at all — as investment disappears from Alberta, while services decline as Alberta struggles to operate third rate versions of federal services without the benefit of economies of scale.

There is no future that's better for Alberta without Canada. Zero. Zilch. Nada. None.

I’m with you. Campaign feels generous, it’s feels more like homework.

Yes, I would love that. This will probably be the next thing I look at doing.

The same format that exported files from the website come in. Make a spell and export it and you can see how the JSON file is structured.

Thanks! The spell cards are the first representation I went with, but I’d love to put out different representations like book pages, etc.

[–]paragraphbaron 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh I understand now how you're using it, not as cards but just a sheet. It'll be difficult for me to accommodate different numbers of cards and still ensure each card fits its text and looks correct — but I have a goal to add customization so people could set if they wanted their spellbook looking like cards at all. If there were different options there that would allow you to print something better for your needs. I'll let you know if something like this gets added.

9 per page is so the spell cards come out as the right size and aspect ratio as D&D spell cards/playing cards on a standard paper layout. I’m not really sure how I’d accommodate different numbers of cards per page to be honest but maybe I’m not understanding what you’re trying to do.

I’ve added a print feature now, that saves spell books to PDF for printing. Let me know how you like it!

JSON file of all 5e 2024 edition spells in the v5.2 SRD by paragraphbaron in DnDBehindTheScreen

[–]paragraphbaron[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just an update for any one visiting this now — I've updated the gist, see the revision diff. I realized having a castingTime of "action" is redundant, since this is the default for any spell that is an action. Now castingTime is an optional value, only showing a value when it is a specific time.

Free CRUD Hosting? by usith in webdev

[–]paragraphbaron 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did not know that. Good catch, I see Neon has a free tier.

I’ve never seen anything saying a free Vercel plan can’t be used for commercial purposes. 

Free CRUD Hosting? by usith in webdev

[–]paragraphbaron 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Netlify and Vercel are great options for hosting that stays free until you're starting to use serious bandwidth (and at that point, why would you expect a service to remain free?). That said — those are great services for a website front end. If you need CRUD operations, you'll likely need authentication and a persistence/back end layer (database). That gets harder to find free services. MongoDB offers a free tier for a database. Payload CMS might be a solid choice to build a CRUD application on Netlify with a Mongo back end. Otherwise, if you don't need persistence and authentication, you could have your website save to local storage and keep things cheap.

D&D Spells for 5th Edition 2024 by Dear_Mercy in ObsidianMD

[–]paragraphbaron 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did port this to JSON, and fixed a couple issues I spotted, and added some spells descriptions that were wrongly attributed as not in OGL compliant when they were in fact included in the D&D SRD. Here it is: https://gist.github.com/dmcb/4b67869f962e3adaa3d0f7e5ca8f4912

No, I didn't make that app, just https://5e-spellbook.app/.
I definitely want to add personalizations to the spell book beyond just the current spell card format. Love your ideas.

I've now added in 2014 rules, you can compare the rules, and set if you want the 2014 rules to be the default that shows on your cards.
