How it works
A narrat game is a web app built around Vue.js. It is composed of the following things:
The narrat template, which is a simple web app setup with narrat pre-installed and ready to use
Some config files defining characters, assets and dialogue scripts
Dialogue scripts, which are the actual content of your game
Game dialogue scripts are written in files with a similar syntax to Renpy (.rpy files). Those files get loaded by the game engine which plays through them. This allows us to use renpy syntax highlighting in vs code easily. It is not renpy though, just inspired from it. Some syntaxes are slightly different from it. Eventually narrat might have its own language and file extension support.
