I built a simple combat tracker for my D&D sessions — looking for feedback

Hi everyone!

I started DMing recently and realized I needed a simple tool to keep track of combat. We usually play short 1–2 hour sessions, so sometimes a battle continues into the next session, and keeping track of initiative, HP, and status effects can get surprisingly messy.

Since I’m a developer, I decided to build my own web tool for it: DnD Gate.

One feature I’ve found particularly useful is being able to group multiple enemies of the same type into a single initiative card — for example, having a bunch of goblins together instead of managing 6 separate cards.

You can check it out here:

I’m still actively developing it, so I’d really appreciate feedback from other DMs. What works, what’s annoying, what’s missing, or what would make you actually want to use it in your games.

Thanks for taking a look!

Quick look around on it, didn't do that much testing but I can give some feedback on a feature that I like on Improved Initiative that I don't see here.

Improved Initiative allows you to add your combatants from a sidebar, then rolls Initiative on the platform in a little menu below, all at once. For convenience, I'd say it would make it easier to use if, instead of inputting Initiative, you put in the Initiative bonus, and it rolls it for you. Just a personal preference for larger groups of monsters.
