Meme Taste Test

Live: https://theguysaccount.github.io/tinder-for-memes/ · Screens: docs/screens

Swipe 50 memes, get your humor type, and send a link so friends can see whose humor matches yours. No matching of strangers, no account, nothing stored: swipes are packed into the link itself (one bit per meme, plus a checksum, 22 characters).

• The deck: 28 public-domain paintings from The Met (CC0) with original captions, 16 original text memes, and 6 famous meme formats described in words (never copied).
• Seven humor types: absurd, wholesome, deadpan, dark, nerdy, puns, relatable. Your type is the style you laugh at most (smoothed so a small style can't win on one swipe).
• Compare: a friend swipes the same 50 and sees your match, both types, and the memes you both loved; they can send the result back.
• Share card drawn in the browser.

How it runs

What	Where	When
Tests, build, three headless-Chrome end-to-end runs, deploy, live runs, IndexNow	.github/workflows/pages.yml	every push
Live end-to-end runs, page, image and deck checks, keep-alive	.github/workflows/selftest.yml	weekly
Confirm every painting is still public domain at The Met	.github/workflows/licenses.yml	monthly

Content rules, deck rotation and the keys for a domain, sponsor link and analytics: OPERATIONS.md.

Run, test, deploy

python3 pipeline/build.py && python3 -m http.server -d dist 8000
python3 -m unittest discover -s tests        # deck and build
node --test tests/js/*.test.mjs              # encoding, profile, comparison
scripts/e2e.sh                               # swipe the built site in headless Chrome
python3 scripts/check_licenses.py            # ask The Met about every painting

Deploy is a push to main.
