Gezenti

History

The inspiration for this game comes from another game called Travle, which I personally enjoyed a lot over the last year.

Back at November 2023, I was playing Travle a lot, and I wanted to play a localized version of it too, to improve my Turkish geography knowledge while having some fun. However, there were no localized versions available at that time, so I decided to give it a go. Over the course of a weekend, I developed the initial idea and it was working fine-ish. However in the following weeks, I haven't had much chance to polish it further, and in a couple of weeks, Travle announced a localized version for Turkey too, which kinda made this project obsolete. However, over the last couple of days, I decided to finalize this so I can publish and share the source code, which was my intention from the start anyway.

While developing this, I wanted to avoid using massive JS frameworks so I can work on my vanilla JS skills too. I have to admit, it was a bit challenging, but I enjoyed the whole process from start to finish.

I hope you'll enjoy this game as much as I did while developing it.

Deployment

You can deploy this to Heroku directly by using the build.sh file to bundle the necessary files under a folder, and then push everything. It works without any need for configuration.

If you want to deploy this on your own, you'd need the contents of the frontend folder, and also the backend.py file and its dependencies (please refer to the build.sh file for further information). Most of the files under the backend folder were used during the data preprocessing and saving them to the necessary JSON files.
