Guide Creator

Build a crafting guide visually and export it as a .yaml file. Reference items by name — icons resolve from the shared dataset when the guide is published.

Submit your guide Open a pull request adding the .yaml to the exilecompass-guides repo on GitHub. Not comfortable with that? Join the Discord and post the file in the #crafting-guides forum channel instead.
