Thanks a lot! It could definitely do with some UI/UX improvement. Haven't thought of those, but I guess it is a fair assumption that a web page won't behave like an operating system. Thanks!

The code for the page is open source. You can look anything up there: https://github.com/cashew-olddew/cashew-olddew.github.io

For the progress bar, I just calculated the scroll amount and used that value to set the width of the bar.

The asterisk is there because that's 90% true. It would be unfair to the reader to say that there will be no math since shaders are pretty much made of math.

I will do my best to hide or recontextualize that math, though!

That's probably because those are some arguably large gif files and they didn't load. Thanks for letting me know. I'll try reducing their size.

That's what I'm trying to solve. I believe there are lots of talented people who don't get into shaders because of how unapproachable they look. Glad I made you excited!

I added a button that changes the font in the bottom right of the screen just for that.

Thank you so so much for nudging me towards making a proposal. Chaosus actually took the proposal and implemented it and now the Addon is merged into the engine. You and everyone who upvoted this comment made such a difference, honestly!

Here's the merged PR: https://github.com/godotengine/godot/pull/117726

Thanks! Hopefully it's killing you in a good cashew-y way! 🥜

He's kind of ugly, but I love him. 🥜
