1. Title

Chaos Challenge - My General Assembly Software Engineering Intensive Unit 2 Final Project

2. Description

Chaos Challenge is short for D&D Chaos Challenge Character Generator

This app is based on a post in the facebook group "Antics at the Armory".

A member posted a hand drawn graphic suggesting a player character creation scenario based on rolling a d8 and a d12, to generate a class and a race.

This was a humorous take on character creation, as often players spend hours crafting a character to play, researching the many rulebooks. "Crafting" a character with two die rolls and essentially playing with an unknown character is "edgy".

6. MVP

Minimum features:

• Generate a character
• Save a Character

7. Post-MVP

• Show character Info when character selected on list
• Character Inventory Table
• Randomly select inventory
• Button => Randomly generate character names
• Component => Add a character image (svg, jpg, gif, png)
• Component => Character bio
• Gamemaster version => A repository of games and associated characters, tied to a player (user's) character
• Build an actual API (Postgres DBMS for datastore; CRUD compliant; deployed on a server)

8. SWOT Analysis

• Strengths and opportunities are that the app is simple.

• Weaknesses: Styling

• Threats: Time demands on achieving the best styling between media query options
