FAQ

Why does this repo contain TIC80 carts?

The carts are provided for research purposes only. Their function here is for generating metadata and launching the carts locally.

Can you remove my cart?

Yes of course. Create an issue or get in touch with my in some other way and I will add your cart to the block list.

Does this create a load on TIC80.com?

Not really. This tool is careful to avoid doing that.

• Carts provided here (so you don't have to download them)
• Running update only downloads new/updates carts
• Cover images are served locally
• Searching does not hit the tic80.com API at all

How is the web UI generated?

• Grab/cache listing data from API
• Download the carts according to listing data (if we find a new cart or updated hash)
• Parse the carts for extra metadata and cache the results
• Use the cached data files to power the static search web UI.
