Astral Warp Archive

🚂🌠 Track Star Rail warps, Genshin wishes, Zenless signals, and Honkai supplies in one place. Watch your pity climb and outshine players everywhere on the global luck leaderboard.

🌠 Inspiration

Astral Warp Archive started as a practical solution to a messy problem: players across Honkai: Star Rail, Genshin Impact, and Zenless Zone Zero were juggling spreadsheets, screenshots, and ad‑hoc tools to track pulls and pity. The project unifies those scattered workflows into a single, cosmic dashboard that turns randomness into actionable insight and makes competition social and transparent.

🚀 What It Does

Astral Warp Archive is a multi‑game gacha tracker that enables players to:

  • Import and normalize warp, wish, and signal histories from multiple HoYoverse titles.
  • Visualize pity progression and banner statistics in real time.
  • Compare global performance via a dynamic leaderboard.
  • Sync and persist data securely using browser cache or authenticated URLs.

🛠️ How We Built It

Architecture and stack highlights

  • Frontend: Vercel + v0.app for rapid prototyping and production deployment; Next.js for routing and SSR.
  • Backend: Node.js with modular APIs and serverless functions for warp history ingestion and business logic.
  • Database: Amazon DynamoDB for primary storage; Supabase used for auxiliary services and auth where applicable.
  • Design: TailwindCSS and custom UI components inspired by an astral aesthetic for clarity and immersion.
  • AI Layer: ChatGPT API for predictive analytics and player guidance.

⚡ Key Challenges Solved

  • Cross‑game parsing: Robustly parsing and validating warp history URLs across different HoYoverse formats.
  • Data normalization: Mapping disparate schemas into a unified model (partition key: UserID; sort key: Timestamp).
  • Performance at scale: Efficiently rendering large datasets (100+ pulls) with virtualized lists and incremental loading.
  • UX balance: Delivering a “cosmic” visual identity while keeping the interface lightweight and usable.

🏆 Achievements

  • Delivered a single interface that consolidates three major gacha ecosystems.
  • Launched a Global Luck Leaderboard with live pity visualization and shareable profiles.
  • Implemented edge caching and serverless deployment for fast, reliable demos.
  • Designed a cohesive dark cosmic theme that enhances readability and brand identity.

đź“š What We Learned

  • Integrating multiple game data sources requires resilient parsing, strict validation, and clear error feedback.
  • Visual clarity is essential when presenting statistical data; users prefer simple, interpretable charts over dense tables.
  • Community features (leaderboards, shareable exports) drive engagement more than raw analytics alone.

đź”® Roadmap

  • Real‑time banner prediction and AI‑powered luck forecasting.
  • Broader game support and cross‑platform sync.
  • Mobile companion app for quick logging and notifications.
  • Social features: profiles, streaks, and achievement sharing.
