Hi, this is a simple word game I made based on Wordle as a small side project. New games start every 2 minutes. All players are in the same "game room".

I find value in using basic tech (e.g. there's no React etc). I used HTML, CSS3, "Vanilla" Javascript, Node.js, Express, Dokku, Digital Ocean droplet. The "real-time" multiplayer bits are Server Sent Events (SSE). https://github.com/fictorial/whatword

Have a nice day.
