Continuing from mention of this feature in #5:

There's currently no support for showing the stroke order for a kana. On alternatives like DJT Kana, a button to show the stroke order exists. They use the animations from Wikimedia Commons.

For now, this is put into the backlog because I'm not sure training on this page is the right way to approach learning how to write kana. Though admittedly it might be nice to have the option to do so.

If/when this feature is implemented, a new "General" option to always use stroke order animations to display kana must be implemented as well. Making use of the feature would simply be tedious for the user otherwise.

I didn't use it to learn how to write, but I wanted the letters to appear in a different style to get used to deviations of the currently used font. In short, displaying the stroke order was not meant for what it was intended. Perhaps the functionality should be moved somewhere else or purged altogether.

For above, I'd like to import a font from another website, perhaps not google... but to get an idea https://fonts.google.com/noto/specimen/Noto+Sans+JP

Then one could make a dropdown to choose from.
To get started, in CSS+HTML...

@font-face {
  font-family: "MyFont";
  src: url("myfont.ttf");
}
body {
  font-family: "MyFont";
}

I agree that the learning method on how to write hiragana/kana is already available somewhere else and in much quality: Google results
