Angular2 Demo Application

This is a demonstration of how to present an interactive fiction game in a web browser.

The UI is written using the Angular2 framework, the game engine is embedded into it using the Engine Wrapper interface.

Setting up the build environment

The example includes a package.json, so npm should be able to download everything you need.

$ cd examples/web/angular2
$ npm install

Compile the game engine and the application

Then you can compile the game engine and the Angular2 application.

$ npm run tsc 

Under the hood there are two compilation steps, first for the Engine Wrapper, then for the Angular2 application, look at package.json for details.

Go play!

You need to load it through a web server (even though all files are local, no Internet connection required). The easiest way to do that is to run it in developer mode

$ npm start
