I built this because I know the pain of trying to explain a component or a micro-interaction to an AI agent or a colleague, and seeing them not understand it. Now I just look up the canonical name of the thing I am thinking of, and send a link of it.

I planned the site to be buildable with parallel agents from the start. The site includes more than 1100 terms, and every page includes a live demo. It would be an enormous effort to do that by hand. The live demos act both as a user attraction, and a test-suite that validates the term as the agent is building it.

Let me know what do you think. I enjoy building educational stuff like this, so I will continue building on my similar projects depending on how well this is received.
