Visualization:

  • Traditional stacked line display for hexagrams
  • Artistic seven-circle mandalas generated uniquely for each hexagram
  • Tarot-style card mode for personal deck images
  • Hover zoom for detailed viewing
  • Custom deck import system for personal use

AI Integration:

  • Optional AI interpretations with OpenAI-compatible APIs
  • Support for Groq (free tier), Mistral, OpenAI, Ollama (local), Together AI, DeepSeek
  • Context-aware prompts with source hexagram, changes, and user questions
  • Markdown-formatted responses with headers and lists
  • Secure local storage of API keys

Data Management:

  • Save and load complete divinations with lines, questions, and AI text
  • JSON format for easy backup and portability
  • Settings persistence across sessions
