Wheel Spinner Features
Three Modes: Normal mode spins and picks a winner. Elimination mode removes the winner from the wheel after each spin. Mystery mode hides the text on the wheel for surprise reveals.
Realistic Animation: The wheel uses physics-based rotation with ease-out cubic animation lasting 3-5 seconds, creating an authentic spinning experience.
Sound Effects: Optional tick sounds play as the wheel slows down, building anticipation. Uses Web Audio API for precise timing.
Confetti Celebration: When a winner is selected, animated confetti falls across the screen to celebrate the result.
Fullscreen Mode: Expand the wheel to fullscreen for presentations, parties, or large displays.
Share Feature: Share your wheel configuration with others via URL sharing.
