Note: This online portal is a work in progress. The goal is to create a set of pages that will contain images and videos of how the extension should be used. I've avoided adding any form of media in the extension's built-in help file to avoid unnecessary bloat to the final filesize. It would be less of an issue and more convenient to host the more detailed documentation online. Hopefully people will find this blog useful.
