The famous 2048 game made in react, with a personal touch and animations

Step-Step Guide

1. Set Up Your React Environment:

  • Ensure Node.js and npm are installed on your system.
  • Create a new React app using Create React App: npx create-react-app react-2048-game.
  • Navigate into your newly created project directory: cd react-2048-game.

2. Structure Your Project:

  • Organize your project files and folders as needed.
  • Common directories include src/components, src/helpers, src/assets, etc.
  • Create necessary components such as Board, Cell, Tile, etc., inside the src/components directory.

3. Implement the Game Logic:

  • Define the game logic in the Board component or create helper functions in the helpers directory.
  • Implement functions to handle user inputs, move tiles, merge tiles, generate new tiles, check for game over, etc.

4. Style Your Game:

  • Design the game interface using CSS or a UI framework like Bootstrap or Material-UI.
  • Style components such as Cell and Tile to visually represent the game board and tiles.

5. Implement Game Mechanics:

  • Add event listeners to handle user inputs (e.g., arrow key presses) for tile movements.
  • Update the game state accordingly and re-render the board after each move.

6. Test Your Game:

  • Test your game thoroughly to ensure all functionalities work as expected.
  • Check for edge cases, such as winning conditions, losing conditions, tile merging, etc.
