For those who haven’t seen it, Makepad is also an in-browser code editor with an open-source UI toolkit. Looks like this synth is one of the examples of the UI toolkit.

It sort of zooms out and shows top level lines at regular size, but a mini-map like view of code underneath the top level. It's very smooth too.

Pressing Alt seems to invoke the same on linux/gnome, probably alt key on windows as well.

Rather than going through the browser’s rendering engine, it’s entirely rendered on the GPU. Super impressive.
