A non-developer created a word search game in a weekend using ChatGPT for guidance on technical aspects like grid generation and mobile optimization. This showcases how AI assistants can empower individuals without specialized backgrounds to quickly build functional, user-friendly applications. The project highlights AI’s potential to lower barriers to entry in software development.

I built this word search game with help from ChatGPT: https://wordsdescrambler.com/solver/games/wordsearch/ I’m not a game dev, just curious. Asked AI how to generate grids, check directions, and make it mobile-friendly — and shipped it in a weekend. Built with HTML, CSS, JS, and Flask. Clean UI. No ads. Just a simple game.
