I was at a volunteer coach's meeting for the upcoming basketball season, and a friend of mine mentioned that he had gotten a stat book this year to help him better keep track of what his players needed to work on. As the analytical nerd that I am, I thought this was a great idea!

I checked out a few statkeeping books, and either didn't find one that had all the stats I was interested in as someone who's developing young players (e.g missed vs. made layups, double-dribbles), or required a lot of special marks that increased the learning curve and distraction factor. I saw a similar deficiency with existing apps, and I also wanted one that allowed you to easily export the data for sharing/compiling and had an undo button for my inevitable mistakes. I tried it at some games this last weekend and my son and his friend enjoyed talking to each other about their numbers on the way home. I also look forward to helping my friend who got the statbook during the times he can't enter stats himself.

How to use: It starts with a tutorial, but basically after you click "Players" and enter your players, you can increment stats by selecting a player from the top and then selecting a stat. You can view your stats anytime by clicking "Show Stats", and when finished you can hit "Export CSV" and then "Reset" to get ready for the next game

How it's built: It's pretty much built with vanilla js, except for the tutorial lib (which I also made with vanilla js, btw: https://gitlab.com/andrewfulrich/tourit.js). I took and modified the central state store from here (https://gitlab.com/andrewfulrich/barleytea/-/blob/master/doc...). All the data is stored in window.localStorage, so no back-end. Cursor+Claude helped generate a lot of the original code but became a lot less useful when it came to refactoring and debugging. It was my first successful project with Cursor and it was definitely a good experience overall.
