- Cards: primary-type gradient tint, radial spotlight behind the sprite, ghost dex number, official artwork by default, spring hover lift - Game picker cards + search rows: rounder, soft shadows, hover motion - Progress bar gradient; pill-shaped search inputs - Shared typeHex() helper (src/lib/type-color.js), reused by detail + cards Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

# Pokédex PWA
|
|
|
|
A responsive, offline-capable Pokédex reference built on
|
|
[PokéAPI](https://pokeapi.co/). Vanilla JS + Vite + Workbox — no UI
|
|
framework.
|
|
|
|
## Two headline features
|
|
|
|
| Feature | How it works |
|
|
| --- | --- |
|
|
| **Game series selection** | Pick a *game* (PokéAPI version group, e.g. Scarlet & Violet). If it has more than one regional dex (Paldea / Kitakami / Blueberry) a sub-dex switcher appears. The choice drives which species show, their regional numbering, and which version's flavor text the detail page uses. Stored in `localStorage`. |
|
|
| **Unified Pokémon selection** | One tracking record per Pokémon, keyed by **National Dex id**. Mark Pikachu once and every game's view reflects it — each dex computes its own "Seen / Caught" totals by intersecting its species list with that single map. The active Pokémon is also a single deep-linkable route (`#/pokemon/25`). |
|
|
|
|
## Data & storage split
|
|
|
|
- **Preferences + tracking state** → `localStorage` (`pdx.settings`, `pdx.selection`). Tiny, synchronous, restored on reload.
|
|
- **Build-time snapshot** (`src/data/snapshot.json`, ~150 KB) → generated by `npm run snapshot` from PokéAPI: every species (id, name, generation, types), all regional Pokédex lists, and all version groups. Precached by the service worker, so the list / search / game switching work on the first offline launch.
|
|
- **Detail data** (stats, abilities, flavor text, evolution) → fetched lazily from `pokeapi.co` per Pokémon, then cached by the service worker (stale-while-revalidate, 30-day TTL).
|
|
- **Sprites** → cache-first with a capped LRU.
|
|
|
|
Export / import of `settings` + `selection` as JSON lives in **Settings**.
|
|
|
|
## Scripts
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
npm install
|
|
npm run snapshot # fetch data from PokéAPI -> src/data/snapshot.json (run once; refreshes if >30 days old)
|
|
npm run dev # vite dev server
|
|
npm run build # runs snapshot (prebuild) then vite build
|
|
npm run preview # serve the production build (needed to exercise the service worker)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Deploying under a sub-path (e.g. GitHub Pages project site): `BASE_PATH=/repo-name/ npm run build`.
|
|
|
|
## Project layout
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
scripts/build-snapshot.mjs PokéAPI -> snapshot.json
|
|
src/
|
|
main.js boot: theme, nav, router, SW registration
|
|
router.js hash router (#/, #/pokemon/:id, #/games, #/search, #/settings)
|
|
sw.js Workbox service worker (injectManifest)
|
|
store/ createStore + settings + selection (localStorage)
|
|
data/ snapshot loader, pokedex resolver, lazy API client
|
|
components/ Card, Sprite, TypeChip, StatBar, ProgressHeader, Nav
|
|
views/ DexGrid, PokemonDetail, GamePicker, SearchView, SettingsView
|
|
styles/ tokens.css (palette, type colors, light/dark), layout.css
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Status
|
|
|
|
Working app with a type-themed UI:
|
|
|
|
- **Dex grid** — type-tinted cards (official artwork, spotlight, ghost number),
|
|
per-dex progress, name/number filter, caught/favorite filters.
|
|
- **Detail** — type-gradient hero + tabbed sheet (About / Stats / Evolution /
|
|
Moves / Locations); coloured animated stat bars; defensive type matchups;
|
|
evolution chain re-parented to the selected game's generation; learnset with
|
|
per-move power/type/accuracy/PP/effect (era-accurate via `past_values`,
|
|
incl. pre-Gen-4 physical/special-by-type); wild encounter locations.
|
|
- **Game-aware** — abilities gated to Gen 3+ (hidden to Gen 5+); type chart
|
|
applies Gen 1 / pre-Gen 6 rules.
|
|
- **Games / Search / Settings** — game picker with sub-dex switch, offline
|
|
global search, theme + sprite-style + JSON export/import.
|
|
- **PWA** — Workbox SW: precache shell + snapshot, SWR for API JSON,
|
|
cache-first LRU for sprites, in-app update toast.
|
|
|
|
Not yet done: version-exclusive badges, type/generation filters on the grid,
|
|
an interactive region map (PokéAPI has no map imagery or coordinates),
|
|
skeleton loaders, install-prompt handling, PNG/maskable raster icons
|
|
(currently SVG only), and a Lighthouse PWA pass.
|
|
|
|
## Notes
|
|
|
|
- `npm audit` reports the known esbuild dev-server advisory via Vite 5. It
|
|
affects the local dev server only, not the production build. Vite 8 (which
|
|
fixes it) requires a newer Node than this environment has.
