Hey HN, I built Spin Lab: a browser-based interactive explainer for table-tennis spin. It visualizes topspin/backspin, spin rate, ball trajectory, bounce behavior, and why the opponent’s return reacts the way it does. I built it because spin is central to table tennis, but most explanations are either too hand-wavy or too static.
Thanks Fable, we miss you

That being said on my cell phone, I can’t make heads or tails of this. Nothing really works.
Also absolutely horrible UI and seems like you just put up whatever Fable shat out without checking or any thought. I am only saying this because you shared it for public feedback
