The idea is that someone on a local network would be able to broadcast a web server and have people connect to it with a web browser.

For simplicity's sake the first game I'm working on is a cards against humanity knockoff where the players write in their own answers instead of providing ones from cards. Once I work out all the bugs my next step would be to harden the server and make the interface user friendly. Afterwards, I think the next obvious choice would be to have a server that can moderate a mafia game where players can use a laptop/cell phone to draw their cards.

I'm looking for any thoughts or ideas of games that might be fun to play this way, what you would expect a user interface to look like for an idea like this, and any resources may have for secure web development.

I'll post pictures of my work when I am able to.
