Written with just vanilla JS. For now it's clean & minimal. With that said I wanted to spice things up with how information would be displayed so I made these expanding/minimizing animations you see here. The way it works is I've got some "reference" buttons that are hidden. The position and size of these buttons is used to inform the manually created buttons (which have absolute positioning) where they should go in the screen.
