Welcome to the JinxBot Community Wiki
The JinxBot Project is a collection of open-source software designed for Microsoft .NET developers who want to create clients for Battle.net, or for end-users who want a rich, robust application. The project consists of:
For end-users
- JinxBot, a new application designed for Windows. It has a robust plugin interface system and is particularly user-friendly.
- JinxBot[Web], a web-based frontend for JinxBot. It is an ASP.NET Web 2.0 interface to your JinxBot application, and it doesn't need to run on your computer.
For developers
- MBNCSUtil, a utility library for authentication and file management
- BN#, a utility library that handles the entire connection process, simply exposing events that can be handled. See How to develop a Battle.net client in 10 minutes for more information.
- JinxBot Controls, a user interface library that contains many of the user interface features included in JinxBot.

I've added support for the clan, friends, and channel item lists for custom rendering, and the custom renderers have generic support for different icon providers; the default icon providers are built for the Starcraft icons.bni (icons_STAR.bni) file, as well as the images from the Battle.net ladder web site. The following images demonstrate this.
