alsand Posted May 22, 2018 Share Posted May 22, 2018 Hi there I'm a pretty skilled web developer and I would like to learn Phaser (Read I do Javascript very well). However, I’m having trouble finding good documentation for Phaser 3. I did the basic one with the stars and the sprite at the phaser.io website. Do any of you have any recommendations for other sources? Or should I just start with Phaser 2? Or can I also use the Phaser 2 documentation for Phaser 3? Hopefully you have some advise :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alsand Posted May 22, 2018 Author Share Posted May 22, 2018 I found this place: https://labs.phaser.io/index.html?dir=&q= I guess I can use this as a reference. samme 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blade2xs Posted May 22, 2018 Share Posted May 22, 2018 The docs and samples have not caught up yet with Phaser 3. There is a great amount on Phaser 2 but for now we are frontiersmen on this one and this is where this forum comes in handy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fariazz Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 I think both are good options. Phaser 2 is a production-ready, mature frameworks that's been used professionally in all platforms. Phaser 3 on the other hand is just getting started, and as @blade2xs pointed out, the doc and examples are a bit behind. However, Phaser 3 is definitely mature enough to be used in production, you'll just have to do more work when it comes to finding answers. Phaser 3 offers significant performance improvements over Phaser 2. Also lots of new features which might be relevant to your game, more clean code and the option to code in ES6 all along the way. If you need to produce a game in a short period of time I'd suggest Phaser 2, if you want to learn and build skills I'd suggest Phaser 3 as the documentation and whatnot will catch up soon enough.

alsand Posted May 23, 2018 Author Share Posted May 23, 2018 Thanks for your help. I don't have a deadline - for the moment i'm just learning a new skill. I think I will try to redo some of the examples on the phaser website in phaser 3. li305263: thanks for the link. It seems to be a good place to look up things Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
