This is a clone of the Tiles game by The New York Times. This project is built solely for educational purposes, and I do not claim ownership over any aspect of the original game. The intent is to practice and demonstrate coding skills using React and Next.js, as well as exploring game development in the web space.
This project is a non-commercial fan-made recreation of the New York Times' game Tiles. All intellectual property related to the original game belongs to The New York Times. I do not claim ownership of any assets, mechanics, or branding related to the original game.

The goal of this project is to:
- Learn and practice frontend development using React and Next.js.

- Experiment with animation, state management, and UI/UX design in a game context.
- Next.js (React framework)
- Tailwind CSS (for styling)
- TypeScript (for functionality)
- HTML5/CSS3 (for layout and presentation)
