#32I think the main page overlay needs 100dvh rather vh unit to account for mobile devices with navigation bars
That was something I went back and forth on and eventually decided that there was too much negative space when the browser chrome disappeared but all the content is accessible, or should be anyway. If not please let me know. Thanks.

#33In step 46 of the demo walkthrough, the little popup bubble says "Viola!.". The word you're looking for there is "Voilà!" (minus the extraneous period) Seems like an interesting project and I can see the appeal to markdown aficionados (me among them, although I don't currently have much need to do presentations)!
No, I specifically meant to say tiny violin.. :)
Thanks for taking the time.
You can use it to produce any kind of multimedia webpage. Some restaurants are utilizing it by printing out the QR code it produces so customers can see their menu.

Thanks for taking a look.

#35Earlier quoted context omitted.
That was something I thought deeply about. I decided that an imaginary user would see a page change as a navigation event. Pressing back and having the whole thing poof could be just as anger inducing. Most SPAs use some type of router to do just that.. I imagine I won’t hear from anyone who prefers it that way so until I can afford some user testing I won’t know. Quite a bit of anxiety about that one. I had initiall…
I scrolled down. Then I scrolled up. Then I scrolled down. Then I scrolled up. Then I was ready to leave so I hit the back button. Only instead of that happening, I was scrolled up, and down, and up, and down, and up, and then I could leave. Taken to the extreme, I think it becomes more apparent which choice is better.
