|
| | **A modern, interactive template for scientific writing** that brings papers to life with web-native features. The web offers what static PDFs can't: **interactive diagrams**, **progressive notation**, and **exploratory views** that show how ideas behave. This template treats interactive artifacts—figures, math, code, and inspectable experiments—as **first-class** alongside prose, helping readers **build intuition** instead of skimming results—all with **minimal setup** and no web knowledge required. |
