This app is a simple implementation of a classic Snake game, designed to run in a web browser. The primary function of the app is to allow users to control a snake that moves around a grid, consuming food to grow longer while avoiding collisions with itself and the grid boundaries. To use the app, users can start the game by clicking the "Play" button, which resets the game state and activates the snake. The snake can be controlled using the arrow keys on the keyboard, allowing it to move up, down, left, or right. The objective is to collect food items that appear randomly on the grid, which increases the player's score. If the snake collides with itself or the grid boundaries, the game ends, and users are presented with an option to play again. The app is built using TypeScript and React, leveraging React's state management and lifecycle hooks to manage the game state, including the snake's position, food location, score, and game status (active or over). The grid is rendered using a CSS grid layout, and the visual elements are styled with Tailwind CSS classes for a clean and responsive design. Key features of the app include: - A grid-based game area where the snake moves and food appears. - Real-time score tracking that updates as the player collects food. - Game over conditions that trigger when the snake collides with itself or the grid boundaries. - Responsive controls using keyboard arrow keys for intuitive gameplay. - A simple user interface with a play button to start the game and an exit button to stop the game. Overall, this app serves as an engaging way to experience a classic game while demonstrating the use of modern web development technologies.
