Challenges

• Deciding which way should I use to create the connectors with CustomPainter was crucial. I ended up using a Rect to draw the arcs.
• Gluing the connectors with the card widget was tricky and I decided I should try using boxy since I need to know the size and position of the elements of the layout.
• Animating the connectors was quite tricky because it consisted of two parts (the line and the arc).

Have a suggestion to refactor? create an issue!
