Launching Algodeck
By the way, have you heard of Algodeck?
Algodeck is out!
Algodeck is a neat deck of 54 poker-sized cards covering various computer science & mathematical concepts to help you solve any problem. Algodeck is a collection of my favourite algorithms, data structures, and mental models—things I learned at university and on the job.
I’ve been working on this for about 6 years. A long time. When I started, I thought it would take a year. A prime example of Hofstadter’s Law. I did the writing, the graphic design for the cards, and the box. I learned a lot. It was satisfying to see my style grow from one prototype to another. Would I do this project again? Probably not. It was painful. I had doubts. I wanted to give up. I battled with my limitations, lack of talent, and lack of ideas. I crossed the finish line, and I’m very proud of that.
I now turned into a shopkeeper. I have a lot of decks, packing boxes, and a Shopify shop. No big plans. Have a look and order one, if you fancy, for yourself or a friend. I will put it in a box and ship it to you. From me to you, made with passion, love, and precious time.
First and second prototype.
