Life Trinket

A simple life counter for Magic the Gathering written in React JS.

I created this mainly because there was no life counter that I liked on the iOS app store for me and my friends when we play Commander.

The outcome is a lightweight web app that does what it needs to do and nothing more. No accounts, no ads, minimal tracking ("Games started" and "Back to start" presses for now),

📋 Usage

There are some controls that you might now know about, so here's a short list of them.

Life counter

• Tap on a player's + or - button to add or subtract 1 life.
• Long press on a player's + or - button to add or subtract 10 life.

Commander damage and other counters

• Tap on the counter to add 1 counter.
• Long press on the counter to subtract 1 counter.

Other

• When a player is at or below 0 life, has taken 21 or more Commander Damage or has 10 or more poison counters, a button with a skull will appear on that player's card.

  Tap on the button to mark that player as lost, dimming their player card.
