A hangman game written in C++ that has a lot to offer:
- Can be broadcasted to any Airplay-compatible device in the LAN (or even via Bluetooth)
- Advertises itself as a Bonjour service and searches for Airplay devices via Bonjour as well, allowing for easy and quick discovery of both this service and any Apple TV, iPad, etc.
- Provides a web interface on port 8080 at the local IP address that can be easily accessed over LAN and provides a sleek, resizeable interface that adapts to conform to any screen size or bounds, from a 200x300 up to a 4K display.
Check it out! Can be executed by simply running the compiled executable (provided
in the obj/
directory) on any Mac, or recompiling using Cygwin or a similar
layer for Windows, and should compile on Linux without any problems.
Note that this project uses another repository of mine, namely libairplay, a lightweight C++ library written specifically for Airplay photo and video streaming.
In src/Words.h
, the last include directive must be modified to reflect the path to
libairplay on your local filesystem. To locate libairplay, simply navigate to my profile
and it will appear in a list of my repositories (Ctrl/Command-F is your best friend!), or
find it here.
