This is a great tileset that features everything from walls to floors and even details like hanging lamps and candles. You'll find it by searching inside the Art library for keywords such as "wall" or "candle". Find more of Jonathan's great work at his website.

Web Search

Roll20 features a powerful web search that automatically searches the web for art assets from many different online sources. Credit is given above the image in the results view for each of the assets. We do our best to only find assets that are released for free personal use, but if you find an asset that's been included by our search engine by mistake, please let us know.

Music

Roll20's Jukebox feature lets you find music to use during your play sessions. It includes music from Tabletop Audio, Kevin MacLeod, BattleBards, and from Fanburst.

Dice Font

Roll20 uses the excellent "Art's Polyhedral Dice Font" from Skullduggery Press to display dice icons throughout the app. You can read more about this font at their site.

[edit] Open Source & Third-Party Software

Roll20 couldn't exist without standing on the shoulders of giants. The following open-source and third-party projects have helped make it a reality.

  • Firebase -- the service that helps us keep everyone in sync in real-time
  • FabricJS -- a fantastic Canvas-based vector imaging library
  • ThreeJS -- a Javascript/WebGL 3D Engine
  • Physijs -- Javascript-based physics engine for ThreeJS
  • jQuery -- needs no introduction, a seminal piece of Javascript
  • BackboneJS -- keeps us organized when everything is flying around in a giant mess
  • Padrino -- powers the administration section of the site
  • NodeJS -- the amazing concurrent server that lets us keep the info flowing
  • Twitter Bootstrap -- gives us the style we need to look somewhat legitimate

Please note that this is not an exhaustive list, but we wanted to especially recognize these projects that make us tick. Open source powers the web, and we thank all of the programmers who take time out of their busy schedule to make the world a better place.
