The program will be implemented as a webapp. It will be structured using the Python web framework Flask, and Javascript for creating the actual animations. Alternatively, it may be possible to use CSS for the animations, which would allow users with Javascript disabled to use the site, but would also require a great deal of additional coding and ultimately not be worth the reward. It could be implemented later as a fallback, however.
- Usable in all major web browsers and their recent versions
- Not too much work or complexity
- Limited 2 week time period
