This repository contains Overwolf sample apps for the PUBG developers challenge.
The apps demonstrate the same functionality in three flavours:

• Native (Vanilla) JS
• TypeScript
• React

The apps demonstrate some basic points and flows that are relevant when developing Overwolf apps:

• The app will show up automatically when you launch PUBG (manifest settings)
• Register to Game Events Provider (GEP) in order to receive real time events from the game (documentation)
• Define a toggle (show/hide) hotkey (manifest settings) and a custom hotkey
• Detect the launch source of the app (auto-launch from game start or manual)
• Communication between (windows best practices)

For more details check out Overwolf API documentation and PUBG Game Events documentation
