We're pleased to announce the launch of Phaser Explorer, the all-in-one toolkit designed for the Phaser community. Phaser, a widely acclaimed HTML5 game framework, is renowned for its rich features and ease of use. Phaser Explorer takes this a step further by integrating an extensive online and offline tool for navigating through Phaser's comprehensive documentation and examples.

Available at explorer.phaser.io, Phaser Explorer is a Progressive Web Application (PWA), meaning you can install it directly onto your operating system and access it offline, bringing convenience and flexibility to your workflow. While the tool works best on Google Chrome, thanks to its superior PWA support, developers can also set it up locally for a more personalized experience.

Phaser Explorer is more than just a documentation browser. It introduces several views for accessing Phaser's API, examples, and more, all through a user-friendly, desktop-like interface. Whether you're looking for API details, example code, or wanting to inspect specific Phaser elements, this tool has you covered. The API view, for instance, offers a hierarchical layout of the Phaser API, making it easy to navigate through the various namespaces, classes, and types.

One of the standout features of Phaser Explorer is the API Chains view, a throwback to the popular Phaser Chains tool from the Phaser 2 days. It allows developers to search through API elements using idiomatic constructions, enhancing the way you discover and utilize Phaser's capabilities.

Phaser Explorer doesn't just stop at browsing; it also includes powerful editing tools. The Documentation editor, Examples Folder editor, and Code editor enrich the development process by providing spaces to read, edit, and manage documentation and code efficiently.

In addition to these features, Phaser Explorer emphasizes learning and experimentation. The Example Player, for example, enables developers to run Phaser examples directly within the tool, offering a seamless way to learn and experiment with Phaser code. Moreover, the Examples Code view and Inspector view give insightful glimpses into the code and functionality of Phaser examples, further enriching the learning experience.

It's a tool that not only simplifies the development process but also inspires creativity and exploration. Whether you're a seasoned developer or just starting out, Phaser Explorer is set to become an indispensable part of your game development toolkit.
