Acknowledgement

  • Thank you NASPA Zyzzyva for providing dictionaries of valid words to Scrabble lovers all around the world. Zyzzyva was used at every Scrabble tournament I have gone to. I am excited to be able to use part of Zyzzyva open source for my personal Scrabble-like game project.
  • Thank you Duong Vu and Jason Wangsadinata for leading the amazing web development forum. Without the knowledge, I wouldn't be able to finish the whole game in less than 24 hours on my own.
