Is Hero Lab Online worth it?

But it will likely be done a good bit sooner than previously planned...

MapTool is ready and waiting!

In fact, in our macro scripting language we already support full REST so if you expose some basic API endpoints for us to consume, the *users* can start consuming your content right away! Note, I said *users* which means, technically, there is no coding required from the core MapTool team, but rather framework writers (depending on the system, ie PF2, SF, or SR) AND hopefully the format will be a nice JSON which is easy to consume. We support JsonPath so getting fields from complicated objects is a bit easier. If we can start with some simple character info like combat stats would be great.

I'd love to see some end points that we could also call to turn on conditions and adjust HP from the VTT side.

Lets do this!

(maybe we could have a separate forum channel or discord or something to discuss going forward?)
