History of Amidst
Amidst was originally developed by Skidoodle aka skiphs. It started as a Stronghold Finder. Later on, skiphs decided to add more features and to publish the source code using an open source license. First, it was published on Bitbucket, but later it was moved to Github. Also, a readily compiled version was provided and a wiki as well as a second minecraftforum thread was created.
There is also a statement by skiphs about the history of Amidst. Basically, there have been four iterations:
- the Stronghold Finder
- small area of the map with coordinates
- infinite scrolling
- complete rewrite called Amidst
After the development in the main repository slowed down, DrFrankenstone aka Treer started to maintain a fork, called AmidstExporter. He added support for many new features.
After a while, Amidst underwent a huge refactoring. The merging of the iteration three code with the iteration four code was finished, new features were added and many features of AmidstExporter were ported back to Amidst. During this process, Amidst was moved to this repository to enable easier collaboration of multiple developers.
