I love this, thanks for sharing! Linking to interactive versions of figures is such a great idea and use of WASM.

That’s amazing, will definitely use this in teaching. Would be cool if this could also be compiled for the web/WASM.

Also, another git game / tool I had good experiences with is https://learngitbranching.js.org/.

Interesting, always curious to see things from the UW data lab!

Would be nice to have this supported as a custom format in Quarto [1], which supports some interactivity in documents, but doesn’t have the same focus on it as this.
