JavaScript BlackJack Prototype
$begingroup$
Creating BlackJack in JavaScript and decided to jump right in to try things out first. Now I'm to the point where I want to think about the best way to organize this and maybe start with blank slate.
Specific areas:
- How to best update UI
- Incorporating the dealer hand into the Hand Class to reduce the repetitiveness
- Possibly reducing the nested IFs
- Incorporating the Split
I wasn't worried about the betting amounts/payouts/chip counts for this prototype but of course will add that.

Creating BlackJack in JavaScript and decided to jump right in to try things out first. Now I'm to the point where I want to think about the best way to organize this and maybe start with blank slate.
Specific areas:
- How to best update UI
- Incorporating the dealer hand into the Hand Class to reduce the repetitiveness
- Possibly reducing the nested IFs
- Incorporating the Split
I wasn't worried about the betting amounts/payouts/chip counts for this prototype but of course will add that.
Code:
