This is an attempt by [Nina Paley][] (art) and [Atul Varma][] (code) to tinker
with procedural art.
Right now there is no particular goal other than to explore various ideas.
The project consists of a web site with multiple pages, each of which is
an experiment of some kind.
It can be [viewed online][] or iterated on locally using the instructions below.
## Quick start
This requires [NodeJS][]. It was started with
NodeJS 14.15.4, but hopefully it should work with
any recent version.
After cloning the repository and entering it, run:
```
npm run watch
```
then visit http://localhost:1234.
## Adding symbols
Documentation for adding and changing symbols can be found in [`assets/symbols/_instructions.md`](assets/symbols/_instructions.md).
## Running tests
To run tests interactively, run:
```
npm run test:watch
```
## Type checking
To make sure that everything type-checks okay, run:
```
npm run typecheck
```
Note that you may want to install a [TypeScript plugin for your favorite editor][ts-editor]. Aside from telling you what type errors you have in real-time, editor integration also provides code autocompletion and other affordances that can greatly improve your productivity. For more details, see Atul's [Fun with TypeScript][] series of videos.

## Code style
All code styling is managed by [Prettier][].
To format the code automatically, run:
```
npm run prettier:fix
```
You can alternatively install a Prettier extension for your editor; see its website for more details.

## Deployment
To deploy the project to GitHub Pages, run:
```
npm run deploy
```
## Firebase support
The website features optional Firebase integration.
Currently, the details for the integration are hard-coded
into the application code; see `lib/firebase.tsx` for details.
Currently, the Firebase project that we integrate with needs
to have the following configured:
* Cloud Firestore should be enabled with a collection called
`compositions` and the following rules:
```
rules_version = '2';
service cloud.firestore {
match /databases/{database}/documents {
match /{document=**} {
// The gallery is globally readable.
allow read: if true;
allow write: if request.auth != null &&
request.resource.data.keys().hasOnly(['kind', 'serializedValue', 'owner', 'ownerName', 'title', 'createdAt']) &&
[request.resource.data.kind].hasAny(['creature', 'mandala']) &&
request.resource.data.serializedValue is string &&
request.resource.data.owner == request.auth.uid &&
request.resource.data.ownerName is string &&
request.resource.data.title is string &&
request.resource.data.createdAt is timestamp;
}
}
}
```
* The GitHub sign-in provider must be enabled.
