mlb26-tracker helps players of MLB The Show 26 keep track of their progress in the game program modes, like Team Affinity and Number 1 Fan, without manually checking the website. You install a small bookmark, called a bookmarklet, in your browser. Clicking it grabs your current progress from the official mlb26.theshow.com site in the background and sends it to a dashboard you host yourself, which then shows it back to you as a clean web page. No browser extension is needed, and one deployment can serve several friends at once, so only the person setting it up needs an account with the hosting provider. There are two ways to run the dashboard, and you only need to pick one. The first uses Cloudflare Workers, a free serverless hosting service: you create a free Cloudflare account, install a command line tool called Wrangler, create a small storage namespace for your data, and deploy the project with a single command. Cloudflare then gives you a free web address automatically, or you can point your own domain at it if you have one. The second option runs the same app in Docker instead, so it works on your own computer, a NAS, or a Raspberry Pi with no Cloudflare account needed at all, storing data in a local file rather than in the cloud. Because the tracker has no login system by default, anyone with the link could send fake data to it or view your progress. The project addresses this with two optional steps: setting a secret sync key so only your own bookmarklet can write new data, and setting a username and password so only you can view the dashboard in a browser. There is also a built in limit on how many updates a single source can send in ten minutes, to protect your storage quota even if you skip the secret key. The dashboard itself is a React app that gets built into a single file ahead of time, so deploying it normally requires no separate build step unless you want to change how it looks.
