Minesweeper Game in Go

This Minesweeper game is implemented in Go, utilizing the ebiten, a 2D game engine, and ebitenui, a user interface engine, for rendering graphics and user interface elements. The code is structured into three main packages: model, view, and controller, each responsible for different aspects of the game.

Code Structure

Model Package

Contains the data structures (2D array) and logic underlying the game. This includes the definitions of the game board, cells, and game state.

View Package

Contains all of the code related to rendering the game to the screen. This includes the definitions of the game window, board, cells, and header user interface elements.

Controller Package

The controller package acts as a bridge between the model and view packages. It contains functions that handle user interactions and update the game state accordingly.
