What commenters say

  • A web-based deck of cards would be useful for playing arbitrary card games with friends online.
  • The current implementation lacks features like multi-card selection and alignment, which would improve the user experience.
  • Some users have found alternative solutions, such as playingcards.io, that meet their needs for online card games.
  • The addition of a flip animation might not be necessary, as the current animation gives the cards a feeling of weight and friction.
  • Implementing multi-card selection could be achieved through click and drag or other interaction methods.
  • The website's Easter eggs, such as the King sequence, can be discovered through experimentation or by exploring the source code.
  • Some users are interested in using the website for specific card games, such as solitaire or Hanabi, and are looking for features that support those games.
