Link: http://tinkerdifferent-test.scsi.blue/ (just temp on my domain for testing)
Well I was nerd sniped so I decided to pick this back up today and finish it. I want to note this all works so well because we don't put images, files, etc behind a login so this has access to everything.
What I need from you:
Test it on actual old browsers, what works! what doesn't! What features would you want added?
