Thanks, the historiography is beautiful. Christchurch is quite elegant and nice to work, seems in our

Thanks, the project is charming although I needed to read the interface explanation to fully understand.
It has a nice feel and I like very much the magnification on hovering the timeline.

I agree. I think that magnification would be the main takeaway from this reference.
