Beyond All Reason Units DB

This project builds a static unit database table from the Beyond All Reason game files.

How It Works

1. Clone the game data repo to access the source files.
2. Run units2json.lua to convert unit definitions into src/_data/units.json.
3. Convert i18n unit names and descriptions into src/_locales/en.yml.
4. Convert buildpics (Beyond-All-Reason/unitpics) to optimized PNGs in src/images/unitpics.
5. Copy and optimize unit icons (Beyond-All-Reason/icons) into src/images/icons.
6. Use Bridgetown to generate the static site and table view.
