Excalibur TypeScript & Webpack Starter

This is a barebones Excalibur game engine starter built using Typescript 4 & Webpack 5. It's a great starting place to jumpstart building your game! This repo is a template and can be used to create your own repository in GitHub.

Check out our other samples while you build your game or ask us questions.

Get Started

• Using Node.js 14 (LTS) and npm
• Run the npm install to install dependencies
• Run the npm start to run the development server to test out changes
  • Webpack will build the Typescript into Javascript
  • Webpack dev server will host the script in a little server on http://localhost:8080/

Publishing

• Run npm run build:dev to produce Javascript bundles for debugging in the dist/ folder
• Run npm run build:prod to produce Javascript bundles for production (minified) in the dist/ folder

The dist/ folder can be deployed to a static web host. We recommend Netlify or GitHub Pages since they are free to use.
