Overview:

Cindy-Realtime日本語バーション (translated as Cindy-Realtime Japanese version) is a website designed for playing lateral thinking games. It has a Python Django backend and a Node.js frontend. The project is in maintenance mode and the latest website has been partially rewritten with a Rust-lang based backend and React frontend in separate repositories. Cindy-Realtime inherits its database from Cindy but has a completely different frontend. It includes features like WebSocket for real-time chat, React for a more convenient UI, and GraphQL & Relay for faster site loading. However, there are some drawbacks such as limited old browser support and inability to deploy on a single-thread PaaS.
