A web-based augmented-reality version of the card game W.A.R. The hosted demo is gone (Heroku killed free dynos in 2022), but the source is still on GitHub.

Mostly a sketch. A way to learn what casual browser-AR could feel like in 2016, before AR libraries were a thing you could npm install. The hosted demo is gone with the Heroku free tier; the source is still there. The question that drove it still feels alive, even if the answer doesn’t.
