Hi,

I do not know if this is already a work in progress but i would like to see an armory like website like the armory of old in vanilla.

I can contribute with code if you wish. I am an experienced Ruby and Python developer. I am unfortunately not a great designer so i would at least need somebody to design the interface (given you don't have anything like this at the moment).

They dont have time ATM to build an armory.

But realmplayer works very good : http://realmplayers.com

And we have raid stat too : http://realmplayers.com/RaidStats/RaidList.aspx?realm=NRB

That doesn't look half bad really, but i still think it's much better if we could make some REST interface on the actual database to implement in some website. It does not involve any addons to be loaded and you can draw more stats from it.

But thanks a lot for the link.

We have http://armory.digam.dk as well, focussing on signatues, gearscores, achievements.

The site is made in PHP, but currently with no item database.

Thanks, it's good effort but again this is done using data gathering from an add-on that some players may or may not have installed.

Although i thing it's better than nothing i find my characters to be out of data because nobody with the add-on spotted me for a couple of weeks or not even at all. If we could expose this from the actual database we could show everything in a much more detailed and updated state.

Dilatazu (creator of Realmplayers) is looking for people willing to volunteer time to continuing to improve the website.

So if you're interested in helping an already established, often used armory, this could be an opportunity for you.
