# rakugaki - digital multiplayer graffiti
|
|
|
|
rakugaki is a multiplayer paint canvas with programmable brushes!
|
|
|
|
At the heart of rakugaki is the _brush_ - a little program for manipulating pixels on a _wall_.
|
|
Brushes are written in a tiny programming language called _haku_.
|
|
|
|
## I wanna try it out!
|
|
|
|
Since the app is currently in very early alpha stages, there's no public instance at the moment.
|
|
|
|
You're free to spin up a server for your friends though!
|
|
Here's the setup procedure for production instances.
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
# As of writing this, 1.81 is not yet released, so we have to use Rust nightly.
|
|
rustup toolchain install nightly-2024-08-11
|
|
rustup default nightly-2024-08-11
|
|
rustup target add wasm32-unknown-unknown
|
|
|
|
# We use `just` to wrangle the process of building the client-side WebAssembly and the server.
|
|
cargo install just
|
|
|
|
# Now it's time to run the backend!
|
|
just port=8080 profile=release
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Then, you can connect to `localhost:8080` to see the app in action.
|
|
|
|
For development, I recommend using `cargo watch` for live reloading.
|
|
`just` defaults to a sensible development configuration.
|
|
If you need to override the port, use the `port` variable as shown above.
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
cargo install cargo-watch
|
|
cargo watch -- just
|
|
```
|
|
