Combat Companion is a simple web-based app that allows combat/encounter tracking and features for Dungeons & Dragons. You can view the latest release live here: Combat-Companion.Nexodus.net

• Create your own statblocks for enemies or PCs
• Initiative tracking
• Styled display of current combat and recreated statblocks
• Loading and saving current combat (to local storage)
• Turn and round tracking
• Status effect tracking (with optional feature to set status effect for set turns that decrements on each turn)

Future features will include:

• Dynamic and improved saving and loading system to save and access a list of custom PCs and monsters with option to export and import

• Apply damage in bulk (e.g., fireball cast, mark which enemies are hit, roll Dex saves, and automatically apply damage appropriately)
• Further implementation of the Open5E API to access spell descriptions dynamically

• Combat Companion is designed to be simple and lightweight. As a result, it uses vanilla Javascript, HTML, and CSS with minimal dependencies
• It can be installed by cloning the folder wherever you would like and unzipping if necessary

• Open "Index.html" in a modern web browser
• Internet access is required to access the Open5E API, but otherwise the app is still fully functional offline
• Can also be accessed live at Combat-Companion.Nexodus.net with an internet connection

Combat Companion is designed for a minimum screen resolution of 940px wide for optimal display. It will not display properly if used at a lower resolution.

Make sure to use a Javascript enabled modern web browser, such as the latest version of Firefox, Chrome, Edge, Opera, or Safari.
