Guess-Hue
Web-based game inspired by the board game Hues & Cues by Scott Brady with daily colors and hints.
The site was built using React & Firebase throughout the course of a couple months. The image above is the developer mode created as a GUI for my collaborator,
The Nameist, who could add secret colors and clues to the database. The database is Firebase's NoSQL databse 'Firestore'. Firebase is also used for the continuous deployment of the application while GitHub Actions handles continuous integration.
When a user plays the game, the database is queried for an entry with the current date. This is how the color and hints are changed automatically every day. The colors on the board were generated by a Python script I created for future board changing.
Guess-Hue was also largely inspired by Daily New York Times games such as Wordle and the Mini Cross. Users share their results with their friends to see who can get closest each day.
