How did you GET THE TEXT TO WRITE ACROSS THE SCREEN LIKE THAT That is literally amazing Wish there was a way to do that in python... wait there is! have to do it letter by letter tho.

Well, it was done letter by letter. Those letters are represented as styled html elements. Timing was done using: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/WindowOrWorkerGlobalScope/setTimeout

So there is no out-of-the-box sequenced text system but I built a small custom engine. It's a little bit involved, one reason being that it is implemented using continuation-passing-style https://github.com/egaga/openvim/blob/master/js/tutorial/tutorial_engine.js
