I like the minimal UI and the tree view is interesting. I would be interested in learning more about the background of this project but there's no "about" link anywhere.

I love the tree builder. How does it decide there is enough space to expand to two (or more) columns and conversely when to collapse columns?

Thanks!

Columns are filled top to bottom with nodes. Adjacent columns which are empty can be filled by their neighbors.

If you'd like to know more, the code can be found at:

Not only is this useful for visualizing proggit but I am guessing it would work nicely for visualizing any other sub-reddit also!

Hey dude, that's an awesome web app you got there, im loving it.
