Browser-based multiplayer Tile Rummy with room IDs and reconnects (same room ID + name).

Demo link: https://rummy-tiles-io.onrender.com/

Dev setup

npm install
npm run dev:server
npm run dev:client

• Server runs on http://localhost:3000
• Vite client runs on http://localhost:5173
• The client auto-connects to port 3000 when running on 5173.

Rules implemented

• Classic 106 tiles (two of each 1-13 in 4 colors + 2 jokers)
• Up to 5 players, 13 tiles each
• Initial meld: play at least 30 points from your hand before rearranging the table
• Full table rearrangement after initial meld (must keep all existing table tiles)
• Valid sets (same value, different colors) and runs (same color, consecutive)
• Jokers can represent any tile; scoring treats jokers as 30 points
• Round ends when a player empties their hand, or stalemate with empty deck
