Build a Tic Tac Toe with Next.js
A classic tic-tac-toe game with AI opponent and score tracking. Using Next.js's Next.js 14+ with App Router, SSR, and shadcn/ui, LoomCode AI generates a production-ready tic tac toe with clean code structure, proper state management, and a polished user interface — all from a single text description in seconds. No prior coding experience required.

Why Build a Tic Tac Toe with Next.js
Next.js's reactive rendering makes it surprisingly effective for a tic tac toe. Game state, animations, and user input all map to Next.js 14's state management and rendering cycle.
What the AI Generates for This Tic Tac Toe
- Responsive tic tac toe layout that adapts to desktop, tablet, and mobile
- Component-based architecture with reusable UI elements
- Client-side state management for instant user interactions
- Styled with Tailwind CSS utility classes for a polished look
- Smooth animations and keyboard/touch input handling
- Score tracking, game-over states, and restart functionality

What You Get
LoomCode AI generates a playable tic tac toe with game controls, scoring, and state management. The game handles user input, tracks progress, and includes start/restart flows with score display. The output is properly structured Next.js code using Next.js 14, TypeScript, Tailwind CSS, shadcn/ui with typed components, responsive styling, and clean state management. The app runs immediately in a live sandbox — interact with it, test every feature, then iterate with follow-up prompts or deploy to a shareable URL.
Tips for Better Results
- Describe the game mechanics explicitly: "arrow keys to move, spacebar to jump, collect coins for points" gives the AI clear interaction patterns
- Ask for game states: "start screen, playing, game over with score and restart button" so the AI builds the full game loop
- Request specific animation types — "smooth character movement" or "particle effects on collision" — for better visual output
- Consider asking for responsive design explicitly if mobile support matters for your tic tac toe

FAQ
Can AI build a Tic Tac Toe with Next.js?
Yes. LoomCode AI generates a complete tic tac toe with Next.js 14, TypeScript, Tailwind CSS, shadcn/ui from a text description. The AI understands game state management, animations, keyboard/touch input, and scoring and produces working code that runs immediately in a live sandbox. Next.js's component architecture handles game state management, animations, keyboard/touch input, and scoring with reusable UI pieces and efficient state management. You can iterate with follow-up prompts to refine features or deploy with one click.
How long does it take to build a Tic Tac Toe with AI?
A working tic tac toe typically generates in 30-60 seconds. The initial version includes game state management, animations, keyboard/touch input, and scoring with a polished UI. From there, you can add features incrementally — each follow-up prompt takes another 15-30 seconds. Most users go from idea to a deployable tic tac toe in under 10 minutes, compared to hours or days of manual development.
Can I customize the generated Tic Tac Toe?
Yes, in two ways. First, use natural language follow-up prompts: "add dark mode", "change the layout to tabs", or "add a search filter" — the AI modifies the existing code. Second, copy the full source code and edit it directly. The output is standard Next.js code using Next.js 14 and TypeScript that works in any React/Vue/Next.js project.
Which AI model works best for a Tic Tac Toe?
For a tic tac toe, GPT-4o is fast for interactive UI-heavy apps. Claude 3.5 Sonnet produces the cleanest component architecture for complex interactions. DeepSeek V3 is a cost-effective alternative for simpler versions. You can switch models anytime.
Is the generated tic tac toe production-ready?
For prototypes and MVPs, the generated tic tac toe is typically ready to use immediately. The code includes proper TypeScript types, component structure, and responsive design. For production deployment at scale, you may want to add automated tests, error boundaries, and monitoring.
