Technical Notes

• I started with a flat collection to represent the board thinking that it would be easier to manage the lookups and change the dimensions of the board. I'm happy with some aspects, but I don't like the side function or the rows helper.
• At some point I started moving some of the functions to their own modules (board related functions, screen rendering functions, etc), but then I thought it wasn't necessary for such a small program.
• I'm not too happy with the cond and if's in the game loop, but couldn't come up with a different solution.
• The functions for saving and loading games are in tic-tac-toe.persist, but I could not complete the command processing for user input on time.
