Post about programming, interesting repos, learning to program, etc. Let's try to keep free software posts in the c/libre comm unless the post is about the programming/is to the repo.
-
Do not doxx yourself by posting a repo that is yours and in any way leads to your personally identifying information. Use reports if necessary to alert mods to a potential doxxing.

Be kind, keep struggle sessions focused on the topic of programming.

I recommend doing front end only unless your goal is to learn full stack. Games are great when they're purely front end and it will be simpler to use only one language and one domain of knowledge.
If your goal is to learn full stack then I recommend using simple libraries/frameworks for both. For back end, a simple express server (if you prefer JavaScript) that will contain the game's state and make changes based on requests to its routes. For the front end, something very simple that doesn't get in the way of DOM manipulation. Like jQuery. If you want a simple theme as well, bootstrap can help you and it integrates with jQuery.
