Semblance is a web based game, where you see an image, and have to describe it in words.
Link : https://semblance-game.herokuapp.com/

• Golang to create the server, run the game, use external APIs and for HTML templating
• Random Image API to fetch a random image via a http request
• Azure Cognitive Services' Computer Vision API to generate tags for each image
• For the UI, I used Webflow, much improvement is needed there though 😂

1. To run Semblance locally, you must have access to an Azure Computer Vision instance, you can create one from here Once created, get the API Key and Endpoint from Resource Management > Keys and Endpoint

2. If Go isn't installed, set it up following this

3. Clone this repository, via HTTPS or SSH

   git clone https://github.com/deepto98/semblance-game.git
   

4. Open .env and add your api key and endpoint

   # Add the Computer Vision key here
   COMPUTER_VISION_KEY=XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
   # Add the Computer Vision endpoint here
   COMPUTER_VISION_ENDPOINT=https://sampleapp.cognitiveservices.azure.com
   

5. Install dependencies

   go mod tidy
   

6. Build and run the app

   go build .
   go run .
   

7. If all has gone well, you should be able to play the game at localhost
