Mastermind game 🧙‍

A quick and dirty Mastermind single-player game implementation.

https://scmx.github.io/mastermind

The computer opponent decides on a code and you make guesses as to what the code is. When you've made a guess for all positions on a row, you instantly get the results and move on to the next row unless you just won. 🎉

Technologies

• Modern JavaScript (but no transpilation)
• CSS flexbox
• Hyperapp - JavaScript micro-framework with virtual DOM, state management

Gotchas

• Bad UI and UX
• No tests
• Big ugly view component
• No JSX, used h('div', {}, [...]) instead to try it out 😒
• Very cheatable
• Soon to be an intentionally abandoned side project

Challenges for you

• Write your own version?
• Write a two-player version?
• Move opponent logic to a server to remove ability to cheat?
• Write an isomorphic game server that can be run either in node or in the browser?
