I've got a stable version with an initial suite of features that I'm happy to share with you all in case you're curious and want to have a little play around. If you do have a little play around, let me know your thoughts on the current features
The app is smart enough to cross-check all currently tracked stats. So for example, if you are a Minstrel it knows you automatically have all instrument skills already (though they may be level gated), whereas other classes only inherit 2 specific instruments that vary by class - the rest your character needs to learn manually.
Hopefully things are intuitive enough, for everything else there are basic instructions on the screens. The grids are typically either "Left Click to Increase / Right click to decrease" or "Click to select from a menu option"
