HexPixiJs
Basic Hex Grid For PixiJS. Version 0.30 (alpha).
HexPixiJs is a simple library written to give hex grid based game developers a jump start. This library will be updated periodically but there is currently no roadmap of features. Feel free to request features.
Browser
Use /bin/hexpixi.js file for the browser.
node/browserify/CommonJS
Add this repository to your dependencies, do npm install and require('hex-pixi-js'); in your code.
Disclaimer
This is not supposed to be and end-all solution for making hex grid based games. There is currently no documentation, but the code is fairly simple so I believe there is value for some developers.
Troubleshooting
I realize there is a CORS (cross origin resource sharing) issue if you are trying to view this without a webserver. In otherwords, if you download the files and double click index.html, the texture might not load.
