How you work with it here
play it through, step one change at a time, scrub to any step, run it on your own input, predict what happens next, try operations in any order.
Screen readers: Items announce position from the top or front and value; each step announces the operation and the new top or front.
Reduced motion: Items appear or disappear in place with a crossfade instead of sliding in or out.
