A word game where players must think of the biggest word that fits a given constraint (e.g., "starts with HI").

The game requires a word database to validate submissions. Before playing, you need to initialize the database:

1. Run the initialization script by visiting the script's endpoint in your browser:

   • Navigate to the scripts/initDb.ts file in Val Town
   • Click the endpoint URL to trigger the script
   • Or run it via curl: curl https://your-val-endpoint/scripts/initDb.ts

2. Verify initialization - The script will return a JSON response showing:

   • Total number of words loaded
   • List of available rounds and their rules

Note: This only needs to be done once, or when the word list is updated. The script is idempotent and will drop/recreate the table if run again.

• The entrypoint is index.ts. That's the backend HTTP server, which also serves the all the frontend assets.

• The client-side entrypoint is /frontend/index.html

  • which in turn imports /frontend/index.tsx
  • which in turn imports the React app from /frontend/components/App.tsx.

Validates word submissions against the game's word database.

Request body:

{
  "submissions": [
    { "round": 1, "word": "history" },
    { "round": 1, "word": "hippopotamus" }
  ]
}

Response:

{
  "results": [
    { "round": 1, "word": "history", "isValid": true },
    { "round": 1, "word": "hippopotamus", "isValid": true }
  ]
}
