MeltMan

Inspiration

We wanted to learn how to create a simple game on react and learn socket io.

What it does

It is a web app that allows user to live chat with other people and play hangman on the side.

How I built it

Using react, express, and socket io. We created the front end and back end in the same repository.

Challenges I ran into

Updating and keep track of states in react and the natural flow of a class component.

Accomplishments that I'm proud of

Creating my first react mini game.

What I learned

I learned how socket io is used to actively update the live chat.

What's next for MeltMan

Add more functionality such as allow users to play against each other in Meltman.

Built With

• express.js
• react
• socket.io
