Inside the project

Goals, decisions and development.

The project

Albion Advisor is an application for Albion Online’s economy. I handled the interface’s design and development and the services that turn market data and recipes into comparison tools for players.

Experience and features

The initial journey sets the server and language. The app offers crafting, refining, buying, selling and city comparison tools, plus planning based on budget, Focus and preferences. Screens show costs, availability and data freshness alongside estimates.

Development and technology

The frontend uses React and JavaScript/JSX, with CSS and Vite builds. The Node.js backend integrates Albion Data APIs; PostgreSQL and NATS modules handle orders and market snapshots. Cache and data are separated by game server, with API fallback when market depth is unavailable.

What I built

The project combines an operational interface with data comparison logic. Displayed opportunities are estimates dependent on price coverage and freshness, not guaranteed profits or automated in-game transactions.
