Technical Notes
Keep controls usable on touch devices. Test keyboard focus and reduced-motion preferences.
Mobile: Works with tap and keyboard. Check the lower-right offset against other fixed controls.
Browser: Uses standard HTML, CSS and JavaScript. Install all three together; no external library is required.
Reduced Motion: Reduces transitions and smooth scrolling when reduced motion is requested.
