It's not nearly as polished but I had a lot of fun making it. It uses React and the now-no-longer-maintained https://boardgame.io/.

Making a board-game app
It could definitely be used to do that. However, there are better frameworks to accomplish this with many of the features needed for board games. https://boardgame.io is one of them. If anything, take a look at that and utilize some of their game logic and game state management ideas in Django.

In a week I'm 30 and this is my latest achievement as a webDev. 5k undead units in a browser game with 120fps. Heh, not much, but hope release will happen soon and it'll be much bigger achievement.
Check out boardgame.io if you are not looking to do everything from scratch.

Ask HN: What is the most barebone back end solution?
I think you know best what you want to build yourself. :-)
If you separate the abstract interface for sending/receiving game states and its implementation, you can rely on an external service like hushfile to get started, and then switch to running a similar service yourself afterwards. Saves you from having to deploy and maintain the server initially.
Running a VPS wouldn't cost more than $5/mo.
Since nobody mentioned it, you may want to consider:
https://boardgame.io/
It is a service specifically for managing JSON game state.
But it comes with its own ideas, so your mileage may vary.
