This is a simple little website I've built for my kids. You can create images using squares of 5 different sizes only. Sizes are special of course, tickling the geometry brain. Layering is unusual as well, making it easier to create new shapes. Drawings are stored in the URL, share it or bookmark to save.

It's free, no ads, no trackers, no login, just old-school internet.

Pretty cool. Though, it seems like the leaves don't scale properly in different screen sizes.

Could you explain what you see in more detail? I don't quite understand what you mean and I'd like to fix it.

Generally, scaling is based on the shorter edge of the frame. The edge length of the largest square is about 30% of that. All other squares follow in a similar fashion.
