# Web-based formspec edtior
Really actually removing the pains of formspec design.
[Git repository](https://git.minetest.land/luk3yx/formspec-editor)
Uses [Fengari](https://fengari.io/) to run my
[formspec_ast](https://git.minetest.land/luk3yx/formspec_ast) and fs51 mods on
web browsers.
`image[]` elements use [HDX](https://gitlab.com/VanessaE/hdx-128) textures by
default (dynamically loaded when required).
## Major features
- Web-based (no waiting for MT to load)
- Property editor
- `${lua code}` substitution in text values.
- Don't remove the weird comments generated when exporting these formspecs
if you plan to import them again.
- The ability to load existing formspecs (provided they are version 2 or
above).
## Limitations
- Although it can save formspecs in the version 1 format, it cannot load them
in this format. Co-ordinates are backported with help from my `fs51` mod.
- The properties editor is slow when manipulating lots of properties.
- Malicious formspecs imported with the `${...}` substitution option enabled
can freeze the webpage.
- Element alignment might not be perfect.
- There may be bugs in Google Chrome, I have only tested this in Firefox.
- Texture modifiers in `image[]` will not be displayed in the preview.
