I revisit Fireflies from time to time, but everything on https://ncase.me/ is wonderful. I particularly like https://ncase.me/door/ . Nicky's site elevates the web beyond “magazines/newspapers/leaflets on a network-connected screen”.

Spoilers for /door: I wondered how the author encouraged me to find a solution for the second map that made reach the target by walking around the obstacle to the left side and returning around the right side (and symmetric).
