> Mini Games: 4
> Design System: Anthropic-inspired UI

A mini-website with 4 competitive games designed for a date night — the winner of each game picks one course of the meal.

What It Does

Four quick head-to-head mini-games where each round's winner earns the right to choose one part of dinner: drinks, appetizer, main course, and dessert. Built as a locally-hosted experience with a warm, refined UI inspired by Anthropic's design language.

How It Works

  • 4 independent mini-games, each playable in under 2 minutes
  • Score tracking across all rounds
  • Winner selection triggers a "you pick" card for that course
  • Clean transitions between games with progress indicator
  • Fully self-contained — runs locally with no dependencies or backend

Key Insight

Sometimes the best projects aren't technical showcases — they're things you actually use. This took an evening to build and has been used multiple times. It demonstrates that building with AI tools isn't just for enterprise pipelines; it's for making your life more fun.
