Hello fellow Dancer devs!

Hey!
 
For anyone familiar with the word game Boggle (http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Boggle&oldid=496588593), I have implemented a very basic version in Dancer, which can be found here:

https://github.com/nmarley/BoggleGame-Dancer


It uses the Dancer::Plugin::Ajax and jQuery for the word list. It isn't multiplayer (yet), and doesn't validate any words.

That's really cool!
Is there a version hosted online?

Other TO-DOs include to add a timer, to add grid validation (see if the word actually exists in the grid), and to lookup which user-supplied words are actual words in the English language (or any other language — different language dictionaries could be another feature).

I would set up a hackathon to work on it with other people.

Code is here (https://github.com/nmarley) feel free to fork it on github and comment/update.

Will definitely look into it!

Thank you so much for sharing! :)
