A Flask web app for solving the Boggle word game.
It's still a work in progress, but you can check out the live site at https://boggler.cblanken.dev.
If you notice any bugs while exploring the app please file an issue, so I can fix it. Thanks!
- Submit the board
- Fill out the board on the home page by clicking on a cell and entering the corresponding letter in your boggle board.
- The TAB key can used to move to the next cell and SHIFT + TAB navigates to the previous cell.
- Once the board is filled, click the
Solvebutton at the bottom of the board.
- Board and Table Interaction
- The solved board page will display a table of found words. Click on the table row to show the path on the Boggle board
- Individual board cells can also be clicked to filter the table to words that pass through that specific cell. The cell will be highlighted in red.
- To remove the filter, click the button with the filter icon below the board.
- Click on words in the table to show their path on the board.
- Run one of the the startup scripts. Launches the app in debug mode
$ ./boot-dev.shLaunches the app with gunicorn in production mode
$ ./boot.shNavigate to the app at http://localhost:5000.
If you don't care about live reload you can run the fully containerized app with:
$ sudo FLASK_CONFIG=development docker-compose up Then the app should be available at http://localhost
This is only recommended for deployment.
