overview

A single player word search game inspired by Squaredle, built from scratch.

Players search for words by connecting letters on a grid. The application also includes authentication, a personal dashboard, game history, statistics, and persistent user progress.

I built the frontend with Next.js and a Python/FastAPI backend, using the project as a way to understand how a word search game works under the hood, from word generation and validation to authentication, sessions, API communication, and persistent game data.
