# Web-based formspec edtior

Really actually removing the pains of formspec design.

[Git repository](https://git.minetest.land/luk3yx/formspec-editor)

[Try it online](https://ca.xeroxirc.net/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.
