prompt

Create a simple two-player game played on a 3x3 grid similar to tic-tac-toe. The game should follow these steps:

Project Overview
Develop a basic game for two players, where each player alternatively places their symbol (X or O) on a 3x3 grid. The goal is to create a horizontal, vertical, or diagonal line with three identical symbols.

UI/UX Design and Flow
- Design a 3x3 grid interface where players can click on empty squares to input their symbol.
- Include visual feedback such as highlighting the winning line when a player wins.
- Add a reset button to allow players to start a new game anytime.
- Provide a display message to announce the winner or indicate a draw.

Core Functionality and Logic
- Allow two players to take turns, starting with the player using X.
- Check after each turn for winning conditions (all rows, columns, and both diagonals).
- If all squares are filled without a winning condition, declare the game a draw.

FAQ
- How should players interact with the grid?
  Players take turns selecting any empty square and placing their mark.
- Is there a need for a reset button or display for the winner?
  Yes, provide both a reset button to restart the game and a display for the winner.
