Guess the year

Guess the year is a webcomponent you can use to add a historic game to your website.

Usage

Load the component

First load the javascript magic that defines our web component:

<script defer="defer" src="https://www.unpkg.com/[email protected]"></script>

Use the new html tag

After this you can use a HTML element called 'guess-the-year' in your html page in which the incidents of a certain date (or date range) will be displayed. E.g.

<guess-the-year date="1993-03-03"></guess-the-year>

The guess-the-year element will use all the space it has been granted. To control this you can use css styling on the guess-the-year element itself or wrap it in a container that has controlled dimensions:

Please refer to index.html of this repo for a complete example.
