Project Kanade

##Overview

Kanade is a cross-platform collaborative drawing platform supporting Wacom Tablets with Pressure.

This is a project for the course assignment of Fundamentals of Programming and Algorithm.

The Kanade Project is composed of 3 parts:

• Kanade-Air (Server End)
  • Written in Node.js
  • Provide service for Kanade-Air and Kanade-Sonic.
• Kanade-Air (Browser Client End)
  • Written in HTML5, CSS3, Javascript
  • Provide real cross-platform experience.
• Kanade-Sonic (Native Client End)
  • Written in Qt5, currently compatible only in Windows.
  • Provide better rendering performance and offline functions.

##Authors

• Aluex (Sever-End, Browser-End, Protocol Design)

• Nestle (Client-End, Brush Optimization).

##Client-End Compilation

Before you compile, please edit /Kanade-Sonic/Kanade/mainwindow.ui, and replace '$Path_Root$' with the path in which you place this repository.

##Server-End Usage

Assume you've installed node.js

To run the server, simply run

node index.js [port]

port is the port number for the service, 8201 by default.

##Browser-End Usage

Simply visit the server with your favorite browser.

Notice: We've blocked mouse events when Wacom mode is ON in order to prevent mis-operations
