Crossed

Crossed is a multiplayer crossword game made with Clojure and Firebase.

Works best on recent versions of Chrome for desktop and mobile.

Technologies

This wouldn't have been possible without:

• boot -- Run tasks written in Clojure
• reagent -- My favorite CLJS React bindings
• re-frame -- A data flow library for Reagent
• tachyons -- Functional CSS for humans
• firebase-cljs -- CLJS Firebase wrappers
• cljs-devtools -- A must have. This is awesome!

The crossword generation code is shamelessly pulled from Ben Denham's work here: clj-crosswords. It has been slightly tweaked but all the credit is due to him.

All of the crossword clues are generated using modified data from https://github.com/donohoe/nyt-crossword/.
