| May 14 at 10:37 | comment | added | 13ackspace | If I gonna store this information in a JSON file for example, how do I establish connection between card information stored in the database and information stored in the JSON file? And which information about the cards should be stored in the JSON files and which in the DB? For example for health, cost, rarity, damage, spells? | |

| May 12 at 11:29 | comment | added | 13ackspace | If not in a DB, then where should I store them(that is a part of the question)? Each card is gonna have a unique effect, sometimes maybe they are gonna be the same but with different values (different amount of damage f.e.). I don't really know how often I gonna introduce new cards, but at the beggining it's gonna be 20 cards. | |
