TECHNICAL NOTES
For future reference here is some terminology:
Active/Activating: clicking/tapping something
Hover/Hovering: hovering the cursor over something (On items with touchscreen, activating and hovering are functionally the same)
Hitbox: the cursor, but more specifically, the hotspot, which is the point/pixel on the cursor which does the interacting (such as clicking links). this point is usually at the very top point of a cursor, though it may vary. on devices without a cursor, the hitbox is the last/current place you tapped.
This work utilizes "transform" and "transition" to make animations work (as can be seen in the EXTRAS). Due to this limitation, I need to utilize various "vender prefixes" to make them work on most browsers. The ones currently supported are as follows:
-webkit (chromium, safari)
-o (opera based)
-ms (microsoft based)
-moz (mozilla based)
If you come across something technically wrong (ex. element missing, animation not playing properly, etc.), write a comment on the chapter effected. It should describe:
-the issue
-what browser you are using
-what platform you are on
-any other information you wish to include
If an issue is occurring on multiple chapters, write the comment under this chapter instead, and include which chapters are effected.
Note: No part of this work should result in your machine crashing/catching on fire. If you see someone say that their machine was destroyed as a result of this work, they are spreading misinformation. No part of this work could possibly bring harm upon your electronics.
If you have any other technical questions regarding this work, or general technical recommendations to improve this work, please leave them in this chapter's (NaN's) comment section. The former I will answer to the best of my ability, and the latter is extremely appreciated.

THANKS
To those who helped in the testing phase, many thanks to you. I was worried that the "animations" would not function on some browsers such as Chrome and Edge, or have some issues on mobile or (more importantly) Samsung Smart FridgesTM.
I would also like to point to this work, as it really helped me put together the css/html:

UPDATES
11/12/2022 - Workskin Limiters !
Determined the maximum size that a workskin can be, 65535 (216-1) characters (including newlines, any other whitespace, and whatever else the parser automatically inserts). Any more than that and it will give you an error, specifically "Error 500". While testing non-ascii characters, they seem to take up significantly more space than a single ascii character. Japanese specifically is somewhere between 3 and 4 characters worth.
This means I'm going to be reworking my approach towards writing this story, so future chapters may take a while longer to put out.
11/1/2022 - All this overhaul here
Chapter NaN was overhauled so that it has a sort of menu selection. Now that this is finished, I can finally work on the first chapter (and maybe post it in a timely manner)!
