Type your options, one per line, and they appear as slices on a colorful wheel. Press Spin and the wheel turns and slows down until the pointer lands on the winner. Use it to pick a name in class, choose who goes first, decide where to eat, run a giveaway or make any choice for fun.
The result is chosen with your browser's cryptographic random number generator before the animation starts, so every slice has exactly the same chance. You can remove the winner automatically after each spin, shuffle or sort the list, and the list is remembered in this browser for next time.

Is the wheel really random?
Yes. The winner is drawn with crypto.getRandomValues, the same secure random source used for passwords, and every entry gets one equal slice. The spinning animation is then calculated to land on that slice, so how hard you click makes no difference.
To give an option a bigger chance, add it more than once.
