  • Date masking — all years are replaced with ████ so you can't cheat
  • Kind tags — each card shows what you're sorting by: [Person · born ████], [Founded ████], [Event · ████]
  • Scoring — tracks correct placements across rounds with a final rating

Requirements

  • Go 1.21+ (or use mise: mise install)
