the set up for the spell list is amazing and I plan to use it for my campaigns and characters I run. However, there is one thing missing that I did not see, and would suggest adding to help players in the future. Adding the identifier for if the spell is concentration or instant.
As a player, Druid, who uses concentration spells I would need to know this to know what other spells I can cast after. I would consider this information a part of the "quick glance need to know" reference.
Mother than that this is amazing for game play and will help reduce time in checking out what spells do.
Aye, there is but how are people to know that means concentration. Not saying anything needs to change. But is there a legend or thread that gives a overview of what symbols mean what? (i.e. The one you just pointed out to me)
My only response is to play a fighter...I might be a crazy newb but I don't understand how people keep spell info in useful formats. I love math but spell computations are lost on me.

I feel like spells in D&D are the among the easiest in roleplaying games. There is some complexity to it. In most cases since you have to prepare spells at the start of the day, its rather easy to keep track of what you have for a specific day, and most of the time you end up preparing the same spells. Exceptions may come if you have a chance to plan a day in advance.
You can potentially avoid complicated spells if you like. Or start with a light spell caster. Ranger/Druid/Paladin are good starting points as they are still fighter based and have spells as supports.

I feel like you could just write concentration next to the list of spells you have prepared for a given day and it would be a quick way to remind yourself, as well as a faster approach then having to keep checking the spell descriptions.
Of course I'm also the type of person who would prefer to just have spell cards or a typed list of spells handy of just the ones I have prepared because essentially other spells don't matter for the day.
Granted if you are playing a class that has all spells available and don't have to prepare, it gets more complicated.

As far as I can find, there is in fact nothing that states the (c) means Concentration by spell casting time.
Yeah, it was my understanding that the C inside the diamond next to the spell duration means that it is a concentration spells.
That is indeed what it means, but as far as I can find, there is nothing that tells you that is what it means. Might be viewed as easy to figure out, but you never know, especially when people are new to the game.

Where did you gather that information from. The ideal for a site to have these awesome references is to make sure that all can use, this includes first time players. They will not know what (c) stands for.
I get that most people using this will know, but to be the best program or whatever you would want to bring most stuff to the lowest level.
I think the spells feature is fairly good, but a smidge confusing, from a purely newbie stance. I get how it works, but it'd be nice for a bit more details here and there. (I've only been able to use the mobile site this far, not for any reason except I don't actually have a computer yet.)

first rule of D&D: keep the cleric alive!
There is the little square with a "C" inside , no?

I usually use note cards if I have to keep my spells IRL on hand. If not, I usually have a word document with all the usual spells that I keep.
Knowing what you want to do before hand is half the battle, research never hurts in D&D.
"WHAT" how about that huh?
