Spelling Bee Clue Generator

A web app to generate clues for today's Spelling Bee puzzle from Wiktionary definitions. Includes a React front-end and an AWS back-end that hosts a static page in an S3 bucket behind a CloudFront distribution. The back-end also uses a Lambda function that is run daily to scrape the newest game data.

Installation

In frontend/, do npm ci && npm run webpack.

In backend/, do terraform apply. Set the automatic_invalidation variable if you want the CloudFront distribution caches cleared.

Usage

Clues are divided by the first and second letters of the answer. Clicking a clue will strike it and reveal the answer.
