Wraparty
A daily movie-connection game. One pair of people a day, same for everyone:
connect Meryl Streep to Keanu Reeves through movies they were in, in as few
links as you can. Mobile-first, no login, scored in friendly tiers against par.
Built on tool-template: Next.js 16,
React 19, Tailwind 4, Prisma 7 on Neon, hand-rolled monochrome UI. Movie data
from TMDB (this product uses the TMDB API but is
not endorsed or certified by TMDB).
How it works
- Every link is checked server-side against TMDB credits: acting in a real role
or directing. Playing yourself in a documentary doesn't count.
- Par is the shortest chain the seed script found, computed once per puzzle.
- Streaks and stats live on the device. Solves are reported anonymously to show
"312 solved today, average 4.2 links".
- The TMDB token never reaches the browser: search and validation go through
our own API routes.
Run it
npm install
cp .env.example .env # Neon URLs (app role) + TMDB_API_TOKEN
npx prisma migrate deploy # with the owner role, first time only
npm run seed -- --dry-run # resolve the curated pairs, compute par
npm run seed # schedule them as daily puzzles
npm run dev
The curated pairs live in scripts/seed/pairs.txt.
Pairs outside par 2–4 are skipped automatically; the seed report
(scripts/.seed-report.json) shows what was kept and why.
Commands
npm run dev # dev server
npm run build # prisma generate + drift check + next build
npm run typecheck # next typegen + tsc
npm run lint
