Lambda Cards is a flashcards web app designed to study for the Lambda School web core interview. It shows the student a random question using Fisher-Yates, encourages the student to use active recall to answer the question, and uses card flipping functionality to display the answer in the back of the card.

If you've made it this far, I bet you have some feedback (ideas, insights, improvements, criticisms, maybe even a good ol' fashioned rant). I would welcome any and all of it. I like being the filter of my noise so even if you think it may not be useful, send it along. I'll be grateful.

Thanks for checking out the project.
