@curriculum-advantage/coconut v2.4.1

Coconut

Coconut is a utility library for Cocos2d-html5 that makes it easier to create HTML games.

Feel free to check out the cocos2d-html5-boilerplate repository to see an example project that uses this library.

This package was created in order to:

• make common usage of the Cocos2d-html5 API less verbose
• add non-documented API options to custom helpers in order to get better IntelliSense
• easily access common helpers that the Curriculum Advantage dev team uses across dozens of different game repositories
• fill in the gap for missing functionality, including:
  • audio event listeners
  • user-friendly text inputs
  • complex text labels (multiple colors, font styles, math symbols, fill-in-the-blank, etc.)
  • deterministic, pseudo-random data generation
