Command tool contains all the useful features for browser game development.

All commands are intended to be run from the project root.

Usage

build

Build in WebAssembly (wasm).

If you build while the server is running, it will work with the server to automatically reload the browser. (If this does not work, try reloading once manually.)

serve

Starts the development server. By default, it serves at http://localhost:8080. The URL can be changed with the -http flag.

The default is to automatically launch the browser if possible, but this can be suppressed with the -no-open flag if it is not needed.

dist

Copies the distribution to the dist directory.

The -zip flag creates a directory and archives it as dist.zip, useful for uploading to sites like itch.io.

update

Updates the dependencies listed in go.mod.

Tips

To modify the contents of the distribution, edit the distFiles in tool/dist.go.

To modify other settings or behavior, edit the .go files in tool/ directly.
