Build your own with AI
Copy this beginner-friendly prompt into an AI coding assistant:
Build me a mobile-friendly word-search maker in one standalone HTML file. Let a parent enter a title and 3–12 custom words, choose a 10×10, 12×12 or 14×14 grid, and generate a new puzzle with words placed horizontally, vertically and diagonally, forwards or backwards. Let the child tap the first and last letter to select answers, highlight found words, track progress and time, save the best result locally and print the puzzle. Store everything only in local browser storage.
