State management and more for turn based games.

Full Documentation: link

The goal of this framework is to allow a game author to essentially translate the rules of a game to a series of simple functions that describe how the game state changes when a particular move is made, and the framework takes care of the rest. You will not need to write any networking or backend code.

Features

• State Management: Game state is managed seamlessly across browser, server and storage automatically.
• Prototyping: Debugging interface to simulate moves even before you render the game.
• Multiplayer: All browsers connected to the same game are synced in real time with no refreshes required.
• Logs: Game logs with the ability to time travel (viewing the board at an earlier state).
• UI toolkit: React components for common game elements (cards etc.).
