Features

What is this?

• A external library of your games, with images, genre etc.

General

Login

• Login or register a account (everything locally in sqlite!) to comment and have different games/genre visible per user

Games

• Add games with (name, description, picture (GIF's work), path to executeable and one or more genre)
• Edit and delete games

Gamescards

• Give them one or more genres
• Rate them using stars (1-5) and write a text for the rating
• Estimated prices, images and metacritic-values are visible (if game was found)
  • The prices are not accurate and may be wrong, should be more accurate with MmogaNet

Installation

1 Download the project files 2 Open the BlazorLibrary.sln file 3 Download the nuget packages 4 Start or build the project

Installation for usage

You have to download the whole project, MAUI and visual studio are not able to produce a good exportable build right now yet

Or download the project, build it using following command (still too big tho):

• dotnet publish -f net7.0-windows10.0.19041.0 -c Release -p:WindowsPackageType=None

FAQ

Does this work on every OS?

I created this on windows 10 and tested it on other windows 10 machines, I cant guarantee anything for other operating systems or versions.

Where do I get an API-Key for rawg.io?

You can apply (get a key) here: https://rawg.io/apidocs

Where do I put my rawg.io API-Key and change settings?

• For now, look in the "ApplicationSettingsFile.json" file, under "rawgapikey", just paste it in the brackets, and it should work.
• Working on a userfriendly way

Roadmap

• Internal cleaning and code reduction
• Import data from various sources, like databases etc.
• Better price querying MmogaNet
• Reintroduce the print feature but better
• Maybe get the To-Do's directly of GitHub?
• Export the games, genres or everything
• Language files, to change language
• Integrate platforms like steam and such
