I like how "heavy" the cards feel during the | animation. | | I've been working on something similar, but for arbitrary index | card notes and played around with some very basic animations. You | can see a quick video of it here [1]. After I got a basic | prototype working, there was just something satisfying about | collecting all the cards, shuffling them, and then re- | distributing them into a grid. | | I noticed that deck.of.cards doesn't have a flip animation, but | maybe that's a good thing. The typical animation you see when a | card is just flipped by rotating about one of the axes just | "feels" wrong to me. It breaks the illusion somehow, but maybe | there's a better way to do it. | | [1] https://mastodon.social/@allenu/109952125506805902 | | Edit: You may need to hover over the GIF in the link to get the | animation to start. Kind of unexpected behavior. | alexthehurst wrote: | I tried setting up a game of solitaire (on desktop with a mouse) | and it got tedious really fast. What I wished for right away was: | | - Ability to drag a selection region and move multiple cards | together (like, say, the deck) - Ability to align cards to each | other (I found myself testing modifier keys while dragging to see | if this was a hidden feature, but alas.) | karaterobot wrote: | Very satisfying animations. | | It needs some form of multi-card selection, so that I can grab a | stack of cards and move, shuffle, or flip them as a group. I | tried to play a game of solitaire, then got to the part where you | can reuse the cards in your discard pile, and realized that there | was no way to have it shuffle those cards, or even to just flip | them all over. | owenpalmer wrote: | Super cool, works well on mobile | HDMI_Cable wrote: | One (very small) nitpick on mobile: it's very hard to press the | 'Sort' button, as the 'Fork me on GitHub' logo covers most of | the button.
