thanks again for the note. i've gone ahead and wired up the lightbox/examine view with browser navigation. appreciate the feedback!

tl;dr - first card now loads and renders ~45–60% faster. next/prev now 9x faster.

balancing a photorealistic renderer with performance is a dance. i'll keep tweaking, but thanks for the input and the fun challenge. was a bit of a doozy tbh, but feels much faster now.

out-of-the-box, unfortunately not! it could technically be built though :)

a fun idea! and yep, most data is available via scryfall’s api. with nearly 100k prints, that would be quite a task!

the 3d renderer is a bit greedy, but i’ve got a few ideas here. thanks for giving it a spin and for the input!

thanks for looking! i know gatherer and scryfall well - great tools! i wanted something that felt a bit more cinematic and photorealistic.

on the cpu, mind sharing what you're running? i'm on an m1 mba and i'm far from that number.

cards open in lightbox, so esc gets you back to grid. common pattern, but appreciate your feedback and will consider adding it as a route.

thanks again!
