JavaScript URL Manipulation

Reading Parameters

const urlParams = new URLSearchParams(window.location.search);
const turboMode = urlParams.has('turbo');
const fps = urlParams.get('fps') || '30';

Setting Parameters

const url = new URL(window.location);
url.searchParams.set('fps', '60');
url.searchParams.set('turbo', '');
window.history.pushState({}, '', url);

Building URLs Programmatically

function buildRemixWarpURL(projectId, options = {}) {
const url = new URL(`https://remixwarp.pages.dev/${projectId}`);

Object.entries(options).forEach(([key, value]) => {
if (value === true) {
url.searchParams.set(key, '');
} else if (value !== false && value !== null) {
url.searchParams.set(key, value);
}
});

return url.toString();
}

// Usage
const gameURL = buildRemixWarpURL('123456789', {
turbo: true,
fps: 60,
interpolate: true
});

Best Practices

URL Length

  • Keep URLs reasonable length (under 2000 characters)
  • Use essential parameters only
  • Consider using short parameter names

User Experience

  • Provide sensible defaults
  • Use autoplay sparingly
  • Test URLs thoroughly

Performance

  • Combine compatible performance parameters
  • Test performance impact of parameter combinations
  • Monitor for conflicts between parameters

URL parameters provide powerful customization capabilities for RemixWarp. Use them to create tailored experiences for different users and use cases!
