Laf Deposu

Turkish word-finder single page application. Search a local SQLite dictionary by characters, prefixes, suffixes, and content filters. All processing happens client-side in the browser — zero backend, zero frameworks.

Features

• Search words by exact characters, starts-with, contains, ends-with
• Wildcard support (*) for joker letters
• Toggle between list view and column view
• Filter panel with multiple comma-separated criteria
• URL-driven search state (shareable search links)
• Turkish character input buttons (ç, ğ, ı, ö, ş, ü)
• Fully client-side – no backend required

Tech Stack

• Vanilla JavaScript (ES Modules) – all application logic, no frameworks
• Vanilla CSS – custom styling with CSS Custom Properties
• sql.js (SQLite WASM) – in-browser database queries
• Node.js – local dev server and test runner

Previously built on AngularJS, Bootstrap, and jQuery — all have been removed in favor of native browser APIs for better performance and zero dependencies.
