Could also keep it ultra lightweight, and use code snippets from this open source project: https://github.com/bytegames/bytes (TS snake game) Good walkthrough of the code: https://itnext.io/build-a-snake-game-in-typescript-8bee5b9f1ec6

That snake game looks cool! I think we’ll want to use a framework with a bit more of a feature set, though. I’m unsure about if we want to do everything through HTML canvas yet, but I do appreciate how organized that snake game is.
