Note to the site author: Using Chrome's translate tool seems to break your UI. Upon first visit, I was prompted to translate from Portuguese to English and accepted. Subsequent visits required I click the "Translate this page" button on the right side of the URL bar. (Edit: Chrome 1490.7827.201 on Windows 10).
When translated, clicking the Solver drop-down (default 3x3x3) displays:

Interesting, but the site has support for 9 languages, what language were you using?

- instead of giving a solver, solve the harder problem
- make a tool that teaches me how to visualize a rubiks cube so that i can solve it myself
I think that "Randomise" button could be helpful. Or may be i haven't found it

Does it effectively achieve God's Algorithm (minimum theoretically possible sequence of moves to solve each position)?

God's algorithm is not computationally feasible on consumer hardware so I'd assume not although there are many algorithms that can get pretty close (either matching or 1-2 moves off the optimal solution) which are much faster to solve. If you're curious, look up Cube Explorer which is an app that's built for this.

God's algorithm has worked fine on consumer hardware for decades. Look up Korf. Even Cube Explorer has an optimal solver.

Not in practice. Computing the absolute minimum solution for every possible position is computationally infeasible for a web-based solver. This uses Kociemba’s two-phase algorithm instead, which produces very efficient solutions, usually close to optimal, without requiring enormous amounts of time and memory.

Why infeasible? cube20.org says "a good desktop PC" can optimally solve 0.36 random positions per second. And that's from the year 2010. I don't see why a web-based solver 16 years later should be much slower.
HN hitting new lows when slop like this makes it on my feed. This is neither original nor inspiring. Props on the umpteenth Rubik’s cube solver, I guess.

Your -3 karma is pretty self-explanatory. Hope you have a better day tomorrow.

And apparently vcube optimally solved six cubes per second eight years ago already: https://github.com/Voltara/vcube
