# Snow

> Performance first, feature-rich universal Fortnite private server backend written in Go.

## Overview

- **Single File** It will embed all of the external files inside of one executable! This allows the backend to be ran anywhere with no setup _(after initial config)_!
- **Blazingly Fast** Written in Go and built upon Fast HTTP, it is extremely fast and can handle any profile action in milliseconds with its caching system.
- **Automatic Profile Changes** Automatically keeps track of profile changes exactly so any external changes are displayed in-game on the next action.
- **Universal Database** It is possible to add new database types to satisfy your needs. Currently, it only supports `postgresql`.

## What's up next?

- Seeded randomization for the **Item Shop** instead of a random number generator. This will ensure that even if the backend is restarted, the same random items will be in the shop during that day.
- Purchasing the **Battle Pass**. This will require the Battle Pass Storefront ID for every build. I am yet to think of a solution for this.
- Interaction with a Game Server to handle **Event Tracking** for player statistics and challenges. This will be a very large task as a new specialised game server will need to be created.
- After the game server addition, a **Matchmaking System** will be added to match players together for a game. It will use a bin packing algorithm to ensure that games are filled as much as possible.

And once battle royale is completed ...

- **Save The World**

## Feature List

- **XMPP** For interacting with friends, parties and gifting.
- **Friends** On every build, this will allow for adding, removing and blocking friends.
- **Party System V2** This replaces the legacy xmpp driven party system.
- **Gifting** Of any item shop entry to any friend.
- **Locker Loadouts** On seasons 12 onwards, this allows for the saving and loading of multiple locker presets.
- **Item Refunding** Of previous shop purchases, will use a refund ticket if refunded in time.
- **Universal Item Shop** Works on all builds and will be updated every 24 hours.
- **Client Settings Storage** Uses amazon buckets to store client settings.
- **Support A Creator 5%** Use any display name and each purchase will give them 5% of the vbucks spent.
- **Discord Bot** Very useful to control players, their inventory and their settings
