Cardtypes provide control over formatting, connection options (?), and some other aspects of display. Every card has a cardtype. Wagn comes with several built-in cardtypes, which are customized in the underlying ruby code. Cardtypes can also be created by users. Currently, any user-created cardtype will "inherit" from Basic, that is it uses the standard editor, etc.
To create a new cardtype, create a new card, and select 'Cardtype' in the cardtype dropdown. Give it a name, and save. You can check if it worked by clicking New Card and looking for your new type in the cardtype dropdown.
