Let's leverage what we've learned about Sinatra and our earlier Scrabble project to build an online Scrabble scoring site.

This is an individual project (but yinz should still help each other because <3).

• You'll need your Scrabble code from a couple of weeks ago.
• Fork this repo to your Github account, then clone it into your projects directory.
• Spend a half hour or so with your Scrabble code refamiliarizing yourself with how it works.

As always, work together to accomplish this baseline.

This project...

• needs a Gemfile so others are aware of its dependencies
• needs a config.ru file so that the webserver can be started with $ rackup.
• should include Sinatra::Reloader so development is less cumbersome.

To get started...

• Create a new Sinatra application with a home page (root route for /) that contains a link
  • This link will navigate to a score page, including route & view, at /score
  • The score page by default should say "coming soon!" or something along those lines

All of these requirements should use your Scrabble project code to score words and lists of words.

• All Pages:
  • Focus on creating semantic HTML structures
  • Include CSS to add distinction, style, and character to your site
• Score page:
  • Accessible from /score
  • Includes a form that contains one text input
  • On form submission, your app will POST the user input
  • Once user input is retrieved, your app will score the input and then display the calculated score in the rendered view
• Score many words page:
  • Accessible from /score-many
  • Allow the user to score multiple words with a single form
  • Determine how to allow the user to input multiple words
    • What input types would best allow users to enter a variable number of words?
    • What instruction/guidance can you offer the user to make your interface understandable?
  • Display each word and its score in the rendered view.

• In any view that shows a scored word, include a letter-by-letter breakdown showing the point value for each letter along with the score for the word. Avoid duplicating markup wherever possible; use partials to DRY up erb logic and HTML blocks.
• Modify the /score-many form to include radio buttons that will change the way the words are scored. The user can choose which piece of information has the highest weight. Either:
  • 7-letters highest (the default from the original project)
  • Shortest word always (will outweigh 7-letters)
• Implement a GET route that provides equivalent functionality as found on /score, i.e., allows a user to score a single word on demand.
  • Hint: Think about idempotency; how could scoring be implemented in a way that is idempotent?
