(Original) twinejs

This Fork

Minor customization of the tool twinejs. Uses "Twine 2.3.1 Web" as it's base Intended to enhance the Twine Editor. Some changes might not be helpful in developing "Twine Stories", as the intended function here is to make a better editor, and hopefully use it for more than just Stories.

Also, I would mostly be focusing on the "Web" build, not the electron build, thus in cause of conflict, the web build will be given preference.

This project started as with very minor changes in a separate repo, twinejs-custom, but soon the changes became too big and hacky, so I decided to form a proper fork.

Tag Drop-down

GitHub Option

Reason/Description

• I believe that it will help editing much easier, and prevent error
• Allow more tags color, as the vanilla twine had very limited option
• Make the content in the editor more visual
• I use Twine to make quick flow chart for easy project management, instead of its intended use, thus these changes help my purpose, while should help others as well

TO-DO

Priority Changes

• [Feature] Store GitHub Credentials in secure manner
• [Feature] Backup before exiting the story (both page unload & hash change)
• [Bug] The JS minification breaks the web and web-cdn releases. Need to find some other minification tools/disable minification

These will be very low-priority changes for me, and hence may never see light of the day. But if I ever get the chance/time to:

• [Feature] Support for keyboard shortcuts in the editor (Maybe even replace the current one with a rich-text editor, like ckeditor)
• [Feature] Add more tag colors
• [Feature] Option to set custom tag colors
• [Feature] Show Tag usage stats, with option to delete only unused tags
• [Feature] Style the Tag drop-down for the dark theme
