@bantohq/cli

The banto command-line tool for building and publishing banto.tv party games written in the Banto DSL.

npm install -g @bantohq/cli

Quick start

banto init my-game     # scaffold a new project
cd my-game
banto build            # compile to game.json
banto auth             # log in to banto.tv
banto publish          # publish (or update) your game on banto.tv

Once published, your game is playable at banto.tv — host a room and share the code.
