A small Peg Solitaire implementation in Elm

Peg Solitaire

This is a simple version of the Peg Solitaire game. It support multiple basic board shapes and that's about it! :-)

I wrote this game in order to learn bit more about Elm and in particular about the HTML5 drag and drop mechanics.

The game is available online at http://peg.basilehenry.com/.

How to play

Use your mouse to drag and drop the pegs. You have to move peg to an empty space, and only when they go over another peg. This other peg then goes away. Try to get as few pegs left as possible!

How to build

The game is written in Elm so you'll need elm-make:

elm make src/Main.elm --output index.html

Or even simpler, use elm reactor and then open http://localhost:8000/ in your browser.

Room for improvement

I had a few more ideas for improving the game (if I ever get around to):

• Better drag and drop animation (hide the peg that is being dragged)
• Display "Game Over" when the game cannot progress further
• Let the player create their own board shape
