Snow Card Generator is a simple web app for Ski and Snowboard instructors. It allows them to quickly generate an achievements card for their guests.
Data about the guest's progress is entered into a single form. The generator outputs a single JPEG Image that is 1080 pixels wide and 1350 pixels long (Instagram post vertical dimensions). This image can then be shared with the guest via text message or email.
The app is designed for mobile phone usage. Loading it requires an Internet connection but it works locally. For privacy all data stays on the instructor's device.

- Open the generator. Demo at (https://snowcards.netlify.app/)
- Fill the data. Required fields are marked with *.
- Press the Generate Card button.
- Wait a sec as image is generated.
- Tap and hold generated image to open the share/save menu.
- Use browser back button to generate the card again.
- Use Reset button on form to clear guest data for a new card.
- All form data persists page loads. You may navigate away from the generator and come back at a later time.
If the card is generated with an empty white header where the snowy images should be - just hit the reload button or go back to the form and press the generate button again.
Guest progression for both Ski and Snowboard is defined by 6 ability levels as common in Canada:
- First Time
- Beginner
- Novice
- Intermediate
- Advanced
- Expert
Achievements for each level follow (roughly) the Canadian Ski Instructors Alliance (CSIA) and Canadian Association of Snowboard Instructors (CASI) progressions. Level 6 achievements at the Expert level are meant to match the skiing/riding ability of a Certified Level 1 instructor.
Naturally those are debatable (sometimes passionately), thus achievements.js contains all data in an easy to edit format.
This project was bootstrapped with Create React App. All text below came from that bootstrapper. I'm sure you've seen it before...
In the project directory, you can run:
Runs the app in the development mode.
Open http://localhost:3000 to view it in the browser.
The page will reload if you make edits.
You will also see any lint errors in the console.
Launches the test runner in the interactive watch mode.
See the section about running tests for more information.
Builds the app for production to the build folder.
It correctly bundles React in production mode and optimizes the build for the best performance.
The build is minified and the filenames include the hashes.
Your app is ready to be deployed!
See the section about deployment for more information.
Note: this is a one-way operation. Once you eject, you can’t go back!
If you aren’t satisfied with the build tool and configuration choices, you can eject at any time. This command will remove the single build dependency from your project.
Instead, it will copy all the configuration files and the transitive dependencies (webpack, Babel, ESLint, etc) right into your project so you have full control over them. All of the commands except eject will still work, but they will point to the copied scripts so you can tweak them. At this point you’re on your own.
You don’t have to ever use eject. The curated feature set is suitable for small and middle deployments, and you shouldn’t feel obligated to use this feature. However we understand that this tool wouldn’t be useful if you couldn’t customize it when you are ready for it.
To brand the cards for a specific resort replace the content of the src/data directory and the public/favicon directory with matching branded content.
