HyperCard Documentation online

[charkes]

It's online! As my MARCHintosh2022 project, I've published a beta version of The HyperCard Center, a website hosting web-formatted HyperCard reference docs! https://hypercard.center/

I'm working on the HyperTalk Reference stack to start off. This is a work in progress and most of the documentation formatting is pulled from the HyperCard stack with all its quirks. There's a lot of mixed-up formatting that I'm hand-editing. I've integrated also the Placeholder docs from the Help Extras stack so, for example, all the options for effect are listed in the entry for visual.

The website has both Modern and Retro views.

Let me know if you have any suggestions!

This looks great! Much better than searching threw multiple PDFs to find what you need.

Nice. Next year maybe someone will make an HTML/JS HyperCard player using these docs and whatever the latest and greatest new JS app framework is at the time.

Very nice!
My dream solution, based on a comment made during a recent live stream on HyperCard programming I did, would be an intellisense feature. I don't believe it would be possible but I can dream.
