Who it is forA developer who wants a changed look or a fork of the robot head, and is comfortable with pnpm and TypeScript.
The problemThe published package may not match a custom visual idea, and the source needs to run locally to iterate quickly.
The outcomeA local playground with edits that hot-reload, plus a fresh build of the library in dist/.
What you need first
- A React project on React 18 or newer, since React is a peer dependency
- Node.js with npm, or pnpm if you plan to work on the library source
- A way to map your agent's status values to the nine states the library supports
Steps
- Clone https://github.com/fayazara/robot-heads and change into the folder.
- Run
pnpm installto install dependencies. - Run
pnpm run devto start the playground on the library source. - Edit files under src/, such as src/tv/, and watch the playground hot-reload.
- Run
pnpm run typecheckand thenpnpm run buildto produce the library in dist/.
Prompt for your agent
Clone https://github.com/fayazara/robot-heads, run `pnpm install`, then `pnpm run typecheck` and `pnpm run build`. Expected output: a dist/ folder with the built library and no type errors. Verify that the build succeeds before reporting any changes to the TV head under src/tv/.
Caveat. The README describes the geometry, lighting, and renderer in detail, so changes to src/tv/ can affect every shape, and the playground deploy command is only needed if you publish your own Worker.
