For people who publish
Publish interactive explainers.
Turn the paragraph you already wrote into a figure your readers can move. Permanent URL, embeds anywhere.
02 — Method
Paste the passage
Give it the paragraph you already wrote — the one with a number in it — or the spreadsheet sitting behind it. Working from your argument rather than a blank prompt is what makes the result recognisably yours.
Watch the structure resolve
The claim, the parameters, the figure, the caveat: the structure assembles in front of you before it looks like anything. You can see what the piece is made of, and change any part of it without regenerating the rest.
Publish the URL
Every artifact gets a permanent address. Paste it into Substack and it embeds itself; anywhere else, copy the iframe. What you publish stays live and interactive, subscriber or not.
03 — Vocabulary
A short list of things an explainer can mean, and it stays short. New looks come from the renderer, not from new components — so the artifact you published last month improves when the renderer does, without you touching it.

No published artifacts yet
Finished pieces will live here — each one openable, movable, and readable on its own permanent URL. Nothing to show yet, and a screenshot of something that does not exist would be worse.
