I enjoy solving the New York Times Connections game in reverse difficulty order and attempting to get the reverse rainbow badge. However sometimes my working memory fails me and I struggle to remember which categories I’ve already assigned tiles to in my head. The official game doesn’t offer any way to rearrange tiles, so I decided to build myself a tool to help plan out my answers.
This was also an opportunity to make a more polished version of the Connections game board with some nice animations - something that I think looks and feels a little nicer than the official client. The application is entirely coded by hand, and is available as an Android app on the Play Store, along with the web at reverserainbow.app.
The app is able to target both platforms thanks to Compose Multiplatform, and the source is available on GitHub.
