I did exactly that a while ago combining Twine with Twison [0]. A non technical friend would write the story with Twine, compile to a JSON file, and I'd parse it with a quick script on build time so I could display it on a React web app (that I'd then make apps with, with Cordova). There were a few things that could be improved in the process but it all worked incredibly well after I hooked everything up!

- strix_varius 4y agoNice, was your friend able to just use the Twine web API then? (no installation / setup required for their tooling)
- phreack 4y agoIt's been a while but I recall he'd run Twine locally with the Twison plugin. Nonetheless, I believe you can easily add Twison as a plugin to the Twine web tool. That way you'd only need your game designer to send you the updated JSON file (or possibly commit it to a VCS) after working.
