I passed my time in lockdown creating an Event Sourced version of the classic game Minesweeper! Be sure to try out the slider after a few moves, or if you click on mine.

Check out the code here: https://github.com/dfarr/minesweeper

I also wrote a blog post: https://dfarr.medium.com/event-sourcing-minesweeper-65f0d497...

Really fun to finish and draw the slider backwards. Revealed a spiral pattern I didn't realize I was doing!

Probably the blog post should be the linked article?

Nice, I love Minesweeper. By the way, the link to your blog post is incorrect in your README.

Feedback: You should add one notch on the progress bar for every step so you can visually see that every move adds another step you can move back to.
