Post Description

Over the last few months, I have frequently created HTML explainers using coding agents when trying to understand new topics or exploring codebases. Nothing fancu but the approach has been helpful. Some examples are here: https://www.akashtandon.in/interactive-explainers.

After being asked by a couple of friends to share the workflow, I decided to create a skill plugin for the same. Hopefully, this will be useful. Feel free to build on top of it or share feedback!
