### Can I use the Generator offline? ### Can I use the Generator offline?
Yes, you can with some limitations. The easiest way is to [install the PWA](Q&A#is-there-a-desktop-version). Make sure you open the App when you have a connection so that all required files can be cached on your machine. After that PWA should work offline. Yes, but it's more complex. You must have a source code editor ([VS Code](https://code.visualstudio.com/) is the best free one) and [node.js](https://nodejs.org) installed.
Another option is to serve the tool locally. Download the [source code](https://github.com/Azgaar/Fantasy-Map-Generator/archive/refs/heads/master.zip) and unzip _all files_ from the downloaded archive. Then you need to run a local web-server, follow [the instructions](Run-FMG-locally). Download the [source code](https://github.com/Azgaar/Fantasy-Map-Generator/archive/refs/heads/master.zip) and unzip _all files_ from the archive.
Please note that some functions like alternative Fonts or Styles are not available offline. Open the folder in VS Code and run `npm install` in terminal to install dependencies. Then run `npm run dev` to start the development server. The Tool will be available as `http://localhost:5173` (open it in your browser).
