D&D Item Card Template- A LaTeX Template for making simple, effective item cards by me!

Hey there programmers, I know this is a more markup/typesetting deal, but I thought there might be people who are interested. After being dissapointed with many of the options out there for making ttrpg item cards, I made a LaTeX template for that exact purpose. I wanted it to be relatively easy to use, generate clean images,... #programming

D&D Item Card Template

An online LaTeX editor that’s easy to use. No installation, real-time collaboration, version control, hundreds of LaTeX templates, and more.

Commenting so I ca find this later. This looks fantastic and I’m excited to try this for my game.

You mention that the cards scale automatically which is great for online games, but is it possible to fix the size to say an index card for printing?

Edit: should have finished reading, just saw you mention that as a goal for v2.

Yeah, I feel kinda silly for not thinking about it in v1. I play in person, but distribute items via discord, so it never even crossed my mind.
That's an interesting way to DM, but I love the idea! Do you need to pay for Overleaf or can you download it, use the template, and just take it to Kinko's or something?
Overleaf is free (the paid tier is mainly for work stuff, collaborative document editing and the like) or you can install a LaTeX interpreter and run the files locally on your computer. Then you can print it off at home, at a print shop, etc.
That’s pretty cool!
Thanks! I couldn't sleep one night last week so I threw the basics together. Then I went on a mission to understand how to implement logic gates into LaTeX, get everything turned into commands, automating the sizing, etc. By Friday it was easy enough to use and made a good enough looking card that I figured I would share it with the world!
