Hi everyone!
I developed a small website called Guild Wars Armory.
As a Melandru's Accord player, I find it tricky to keep track of all the materials needed to craft an armor set, so I decided to build this app.
Guild Wars Armory helps you calculate exactly which materials you are still missing to craft an armor set.
You choose your profession, campaign, and armor set to view its requirements and crafting locations. Then enter your current inventory, the app calculates your remaining requirements, including the materials needed to craft missing rare materials and information about where they can be crafted.
You can try it here : https://guildwarsarmory.com/
This is the first version, so I would be very grateful for any feedback, suggestions, bug reports, or data corrections.
Thanks!

Interesting. Not something I ever thought was needed, I guess people have used their own solution like a spreadsheet/notepad up to now.
I guess the usefulness is showing the Artisans to craft Rare Materials if not using the Rare Material Traders as it's not something directly obvious via the GWWiki.
Based on that I would enable the "Craft missing" option by default as it wasn't immediately obvious as an option to me.
It would be useful to have some persistence in tracking but I guess it isn't possible to do without cookies/accounts which is then a negative. As people might just get initial information and put it into their own file to maintain. Because of this it might be nice to have an output to .csv format or something similar to use in a spreadsheet.
Having a hover on the Material icons would be good as it is a bit hard to make out some on the background like Iron, Charcoal, Plant Fibers etc. when on the Details pop-up.
In the "Owned" boxes where you put a value, if you delete an amount so it shows 0 you then can't delete the 0.
It's nice that it auto-calculates the Materials as you update the values specially for those craftable from Artisans.
If you put in details of Material Traders - it could be a toggle as the site can then be useful for non Melandru's Accord players. Would it be possible to integrate with Material tracking prices such as from https://kamadan.gwtoolbox.com/
It could then do a price comparison of Artisan vs Rare Material Trader for some items.
