About Weavaword

Background

Having seen a video by the creator of the New York Times Mini crossword describing how they create the crossword, and being a regular player, I became curious about what it would be like to create the crossword grids.

From there, Weavaword was born.

Version 1

Version 0.1.0 looked a little different, and didn't even have a name. I was calling it the "crossword game".

Version 44

As of writing, and after many hours, this is what version 0.44.17 looked like. By now we've probably blown well past it too!

If you like word games, crosswords, or Scrabble™, I'm pretty confident you'll enjoy Weavaword.
