How to Fish Wiki

An unofficial, evidence-labelled fan wiki template for the Steam game How to Fish by Dazed Games.

Local development

npm.cmd ci
npm.cmd run dev

For a production preview:

npm.cmd run build
npm.cmd run start -- -p 3110

The default local URL is http://localhost:3110. Set NEXT_PUBLIC_SITE_URL before a public build so canonical URLs, Open Graph URLs, and the sitemap use the deployed origin.

Main routes

• / — homepage and castaway-to-captain journey
• /wiki — category directory
• /guides — six answer-first launch guides
• /fish — evidence-gated fish index
• /gear — gear and upgrade path
• /islands — island progression and boss gates
• /entities/bosses — boss documentation boundary
• /gambling — trick shots, fish betting, and no-real-money notice
• /updates — patch notes and evidence log
• /community — verified Steam and Discord destinations
• /tools — tools directory
• /calculator — fish earnings calculator
• /checklist — local departure checklist

Legacy URLs /codes, /maps, /entities/verity, and /weapons issue HTTP 301 redirects to their semantic replacements.

Template architecture

• Site identity, official links, evidence date, SEO keywords, and theme live in config/site.ts.
• The homepage uses an ordered list of evidence-gated modules; empty collections can be omitted.
• Public guides use the answer-first contract in components/wiki/data.ts: quickAnswer, sections, sources, a community evidence note, and fast routes.
• reef-dark is the default theme and editorial-light is the reader-selectable alternative.
• Images intentionally remain styled placeholders. Replace them with licensed or generated WebP assets and keep descriptive alt text.
• The checklist stores versioned completed-item IDs in local storage only.

Verification

npm.cmd test
npx.cmd tsc --noEmit
npm.cmd run lint
npm.cmd run build
