Chapbook, a story format for Twine 2

by Chris Klimas

Chapbook is a story format for Twine 2, which means that it plays stories created in Twine in a web browser. It is now part of the official Twine 2 distribution, but you may also use it from this URL:

https://klembot.github.io/chapbook/use/1.1.0/format.js

There is also a micro build of Chapbook that strips out all debugging-related code, saving around 20 kilobytes of JavaScript, that is not packaged with Twine 2. To use that version, add this story format:

Chapbook is released under the MIT license. It can be used to create commercial works without royalty payment or other arrangement.

If you've never used Twee before, it's a compact text-only format for Twine stories. The main thing to keep in mind is that each line beginning with :: describes a new passage.
