Web Pong

Play my recreation of Pong here! I learned a lot about the <canvas> element while I was working on this project! (And I might've stolen some bouncy ball code from MDN, too.)

This is part one of a series called Pong in Every Language. Part two is over here.

Installation

No installation needed! Play online right now!

If you want to play Web Pong locally, run:

git clone https://github.com/Brunozhon/webPong

Then, set up a server using your favorite command/program to set up a server in your current directory.

How do you set up a server?

In case you don't know your favorite command/program to set up a server, here's a simple one.

1. Create a file named server.js and paste this code in:

var http = require('http');
var url = require('url');
var fs = require('fs');

http.createServer(function (req, res) {
  var q = url.parse(req.url, true);
  var filename = "." + q.pathname;
  fs.readFile(filename, function(err, data) {
    if (err) {
      res.writeHead(404, {'Content-Type': 'text/html'});
      return res.end("404 Not Found");
    } 
    res.writeHead(200, {'Content-Type': 'text/html'});
    res.write(data);
    return res.end();
  });
}).listen(8080);

2. Install Node.js. (Come to think of it, that should've been Step 1.)
3. Type node server.js and voilà, you have a local copy up and running!
