I improved the UI and added various QOL features. In addition a mobile mode was added in the latest version

Today I wrapped up some tweaks to the MiniMessage project:
I standardized the style tags in generateMiniMessage for better consistency. No more little inconsistencies popping up. Over in generatePreviewHTML, I added fallback colors to avoid weird defaults, and used nullish coalescing for smarter color handling. Feels more reliable now. Added a collapse button to toggle between individual lines and the full lore.
CSS got some updates too: scrollbar styling for a cleaner look, button adjustments for better usability. Added a snackbar for notifications with simple fade animations—nothing fancy, but it gets the job done without being intrusive.
In additon, i added the ability to drop a json project and its instantly being opened in a new tab. I added a mobile mode to make the app very good usable on mobile

Item Creator is a small, focused web app I built with Bun and TypeScript to make generating MiniMessage-formatted text for Minecraft servers quick and painless. I kept the setup intentionally simple, no heavy frameworks, just vanilla TypeScript and custom CSS - so it stays fast, lightweight, and easy to understand.

This is the first major version for my version. Item Creator is my lightweight web application built with Bun and TypeScript, designed to generate MiniMessage-formatted text for Minecraft servers. The architecture is refreshingly simple: no frameworks, just vanilla TypeScript with custom CSS styling.
The core logic resides in app.ts, handling UI interactions and state management for lines and text segments. minimessage.ts contains the formatting engine that converts styled segments into valid MiniMessage syntax, supporting gradients and text decorations. Type definitions in types.ts ensure type safety across the application.

You can try the app right now in this project
