I'm the author of Deck.of.Cards, actually did the first version with Flash back in 2008. I started with Flash back in 1999, working in major ad agencies, and nowadays work as fullstack JS developer / entrepreneur.

This project is just a small experiment of mine, wanted to fiddle around with nicer shuffle animation than what's usually seen, and inspire others as well by sharing the source code.

I've also done https://car.js.org for example, and https://flanets.io – those as well just small side experiments..

But ya, i have to agree we used to see more creative stuff when Flash was still around, and that is sad.

I assume the Deck of Cards tool was no easier to implement in Flash than in JS?

Well graphics were easier to do as MovieClips, but otherwise not that much of a difference. Maybe overall easier with DOM actually..
