OK, so I need way more images in more situations to make this properly useful, and I'm sure there are some bugs I haven't found, but

Is now up and running.
It stores no personal data and doesn't ask for a login at all, and has an easy mode (true or false) and a harder one (m/c)

I'm going to try to throw something like this together later today. I feel like a progressive web app, where you don't need to actually install anything, is the best way to do it?
