Keep track of your Yatzy game scores in the browser. Try it.

I was running out of Yatzy scoreboard cards again, and making new ones is always a daunting task (I can never get the lines straight!). So I decided to make a digital one, as it can also count the score totals for you, which is another time-consuming and error-prone task. It was also a good opportunity to try out Reactive Extensions.

This installs the required dependencies, bundles the JavaScript and starts an HTTP server:

npm start

Then go to http://localhost:8000 with your browser to see the scoreboard.

Start a local HTTP server serving the scoreboard page:

npm run server

NOTE: This command only runs the HTTP server. You likely also need to build the served JavaScript bundle in another command prompt using npm run build, npm run watch or npm run watch-debug, see below.

Bundle the JavaScript files to the target file js/build/app.js using Browserify:

npm run build

The bundled JavaScript file is included in the repository so that the scoreboard can be served easily on GitHub pages.

Push the current repository to GitHub pages:

./deploy.sh

Bundle a minified JavaScript file on file changes:

npm run watch

Bundle a non-minified JavaScript file with source maps on file changes:

npm run watch-debug

Lint the JavaScript with ESLint:

npm run lint

Watch for JavaScript file changes and lint on change:

npm run lint-watch
