Pangsworth Info Butler Web Extension

Pangsworth is an open source web extension that extends the Flyff Universe game data and makes it available for viewing in the browser. It uses caching techniques to optimally store and index all of the game data for quick in-memory access to game information.

This project aims to provide useful tools that are quick and easy to access while you play, built right in to the browser.

Pangsworth is an ambitious community project in active development with big plans for the future. Make sure to check back for updates on what's coming in later releases!

Current features of this app

  • Full local caching of API game data and image assets (just under 60MB for all data)
  • Virtualized data grids for quick page-less scrolling through all game data
    • Powered by AG Data Grid community edition with out of the box features like smooth column resizing, filtering, and sorting
  • User interface/experience powered by React and MUI 4.0 for a clean look and feel, dark mode included! :)
  • Game object inspector featured with breadcrumbs for seamless exploration of game data
  • Local Lucine-based, in-memory, real-time, full-text searching across all game data, enabling performant look ups of custom keywords
  • Sophisticated implementation for background loading of API data with built in retry and rate limiting for optimal loading
  • API data encapsulation providing ORM-like core APIs to make it easy to access game data locally
    • Singleton "Pang Context" design provides access to all data interfaces in all child components
  • Built by the community, for the community, open source under GPLv3.0; strictly open and available for all who wish to view it for now, and forever!

Features for the future

  • More extensive data grid filter features for more powerful tooling for exploring game data
  • ETL for game data: features for data transformation and exporting to external file formats
  • Plugin framework for fully supporting third party integrations through contributions
  • Native client powered by Electron
