Hi my fellow sheet authors! I've spent the last year fine tuning the K-scaffold to make it as useful as possible for building character sheets. Today, with excellent help from Riernar, I'd like to present v1.X of the K-scaffold. This updated version provides support for just about every sheet building task including: Built in navigation handling for tabbed sheets. You can even nest the navigation! An SCSS library that provides out of the box functionality for complex sheet constructs like fill-to left radio buttons, and textareas that grow with their contents. There's even CSS variables provided that allow you to customize how things work to your heart's content. A build api to make assembling your final html, css, and translation files a breeze. Translation.json files are now automatically generated from your sheet. No more need to manually write every translation entry for your entire sheet. And finally, the K-scaffold can now be installed from NPM to make it extra easy to use in your next project! You can read a copy of the readme.md file below, or jump on over to the slick new documentation site . I'll be adding a full tutorial/guide over the next several weeks, but in the mean time the documentation provides in depth information about all the functions, mixins, and variables that each library provides along with what arguments everything takes. Looking forward to see what the community makes, Scott Casey K-Scaffold A PUG, JS, and SCSS framework for building custom Roll20 character sheet templates. View Documentation · Report Bug · Request Feature About The Project This framework simplifies the task of writing code for Roll20 character sheets. It aims to provide an easier interface between the html and sheetworkers with some minor css templates. Built With PUG JS SCSS Getting Started K-scaffold PUG To use the K-scaffold to write the html of your sheet, you will write normal PUG, but using a comprehensive library of components that are frequently used on character sheets. These range from simple mixin versions of standard html elements inputs, textareas, and selects to more complex constructions that generate Roll20 elements or workarounds for limitations of Roll20 character sheets. For full information on the scaffold, read the pug library documentation . K-scaffold Javascript To use the K-scaffold to write your sheetworkers, you will write normal sheetworkers, but using a library of utility functions and sheetworker aliases to supercharge the standard sheetworkers. For full information on the scaffold, read the sheetworker library documentation . Prerequisites Creating and using a custom character sheet requires a Roll20 pro subscription. If you want to utilize the included testing framework, you will also need to install vitest ; Installation Install the scaffold via NPM: npm i @kurohyou/k-scaffold
Usage The scaffold simplifies many of the common tasks of creating a Roll20 character sheet and provides constructs to easily create everything from fill to left radio groups to textareas that grow based on the content of their associated Roll20 attribute. To generate a K-scaffold sheet, you will need a pug file, and an scss file. Pug Your main pug file should start with: include k-scaffold
//- Your code starts here
This will give your pug file(s) access to the K-scaffold mixins and local variables. SCSS Any scss file that you want to use the K-scaffold's mixins in needs to start with: @use "k-scaffold" as k ;
Build your sheet To build your sheet, simply run the following command: > k-build
Alternatively, you can build in watch mode so that the sheet is updated as you make code changes. > k-build --watch
OR
> k-build --w
This is useful when using the Roll20 Autocode chrome extension to automatically update the Roll20 sandbox. Roadmap See the open issues for a full list of proposed features (and known issues).

Don't forget to give the project a star! Thanks again! Fork the Project Create your Feature Branch ( git checkout -b feature/AmazingFeature ) Commit your Changes ( git commit -m 'Add some AmazingFeature' ) Push to the Branch ( git push origin feature/AmazingFeature ) Open a Pull Request Tests The K-scaffold and sheets written with it use the Vitest testing framework . Unit tests are currently written for the following: The html, testFramework, and translation generation code Parts of the CSS generation generation code The K-scaffold's pug helper functions All sheetworker utility functions except for the repeating section ordering functions. Tests for the uncovered sections of code will be written as work progresses. If you wish to contribute, please ensure that no changes break these tests. License Distributed under the mit License.
