Rat of Fortune Docker Image

docker_container_rat-of-fortune

Rat of Fortune is a small browser-based application that spins a graphical wheel to pick a random name from a list.

It is useful for lightweight demos, team games, random assignment, or any situation where a visual random picker is more fun than a script.
