Play Hearts

A free card game while we're social distancing

Existing online Hearts apps made me download something or signup for an account of some sort--at least, that was the excuse I gave myself for building my own version.

@sajclarke I flubbed my URL settings--in the meantime, visiting https://www.playhearts.cards (with the www) ought to work :)

Hi HN, I love playing Hearts with my friends, so I decided to make my own no-frills version. It has an impressively short list of features: - One-click to start a game & get a link to share with friends - If someone get disconnected, they can follow the same link to rejoin - Error checking blocks illegal moves (and lets you know what you did wrong) - Quickly sort the cards in your hand This app turned out to be a fantastic excuse to learn about a few frameworks & libraries--namely Vue.js and Socket.io. For the technically interested, I decided to open source it: https://github.com/zchr/hearts. I would love any and all feedback, and I hope that you enjoy playing :)

Turns out my URL settings are askew--in the meantime, can you try including www in the URL?
