Home Jeopardy app

Published:

A lightweight Jeopardy game you can run at home. Put the TV board on the big screen; everyone else joins from their phones to pick clues, buzz in, and keep score. There’s also a solo quiz mode if you just want one screen and no buzzing.

Repo: github.com/reyannlarkey/jeopardy_app

What it does

  • TV display + phone players on the same Wi-Fi
  • Buzz-in, board control, Daily Doubles, and scoring
  • Solo quiz mode with session history (save, resume, review)
  • Boards loaded from JSON, including imports from J-Archive

Stack

Flask + SocketIO, with separate TV and player clients. Run it locally with:

uv run app.py

Then open http://localhost:5000 on the TV and /player on phones (or /quiz for solo).
