Refactor code with the goal of removing legacy code and drastically reducing binary size

[Muthaias]

I think that the initial refactor of the main logic has been proven to work quite well and I think it is time to strip out some legacy code and types in order to get a leaner code base.

I would like to:

• Reduce the code size of the deployed site
• Update the loaded data format
• Adjust parameters to only be limited to [0-100] if they are part of the visible game state
• [Optional] Maybe strip out React and some of the UI-libraries used

The goal is twofold:

• Reduce the amount of code to maintain
• Reduce the initial download footprint

I would like your input before starting this @Greenheart

This would be a really fun project this coming week! I have similar ideas about simplifying the game 😃

[Greenheart]

For example, I've been working with https://svelte.dev for the last 8 months and really enjoyed how much it simplifies the equivalent React code.

One idea is to refactor the game to use Svelte (possibly with https://kit.svelte.dev and adapter-static to get a solid foundation). Svelte includes animation and transitions, which makes it easy to create the card stack animations we previously used react-spring for:

This is almost the card swipe animation: https://svelte.dev/examples#actions

Everything in this issue except Adjust parameters to only be limited to [0-100] if they are part of the visible game state is solved in the upcoming SvelteKit rewrite! :)

This is now completed! Thanks for really nice collaboration on this! :smile:

Moved the final remaining point from this issue to #147 instead.
