I recently created a
terminal-based version of
Liar's Dice using NodeJS and socket.io. The implementation proved to be quite enjoyable, and I wanted people to be able to play without needing to distribute the
client.js file, and require people to install node on their machines.
So I set out to create a web-based terminal emulator, that could run javascript programs as if it were a real terminal. The emulator is written in React, making use of CSS and HTML styling and a modular 'commands' prop object, so new commands can be added on top of existing ones easily.
It features a functional filesystem, context switching for running new programs and QoL commands like
clear. A full list of commands can be found with the command
help.
