This is a simple, web-based memory game to help my daughter practice her sight words. When she was doing preschool at home during the pandemic lockdown, they had her play a word-matching game that she really liked, so I thought I would try to make one for her myself. It was also a chance to try out XState.

I wanted each set of words to be easily bookmarkable, so the configuration can all be done in the URL query params.

• React for rendering the UI.
• XState for managing the state of the game.
• Feather for the icons.

This project was bootstrapped by Create React App, so all the scripts available on there are also here.

To run this project locally, enter these commands from inside the project root:

npm install
npm start

You can then see the app at http://localhost:3000 in the browser.
