    I like this! It's fun to compare it to "A blog post with every HTML element" [1][2], which gets at a (very!) similar thing but in a very different way. This post primary shows , and is a little more chaotic (meant positively!) whereas the other post is much more prose and explanation heavy (also good, but very different).
