-The HTML Review is a free annual journal of writing built to exist on the web rather than be printed from it. Issue 05 (Spring 2026) runs sixteen pieces deep, including "Intersymmetric: Connect," a multiplayer music system by James Bradbury, Rian Treanor, and Mark Fell that turns visitors' inputs into a shared audio survey, and "carecore," a piece of generative CSS botany by Raphaël Bastide dedicated to caregivers. There's also a CSS webtoon, a folktale, and poems that lean on the page itself as part of the text — the kind of work that would lose something if you tried to put it on paper.

 description: "A Hammerspoon script that adds one global focus hotkey to macOS: the active window centers and grows while the Menu Bar, Dock, and every other window fade to black."

 Zen Mode is a Hammerspoon script, not an app: one hotkey (`Option + Cmd + Z`) glides the focused window to center, grows it to full height, and fades the Menu Bar, Dock, and everything else to black. Because it operates at the window-manager level instead of inside a single app, the same keystroke works identically in Terminal, a browser, or a PDF reader — unlike the zen modes built into individual editors, which only ever cover that one app. Press `Esc` or the hotkey again to restore the window to its exact prior position and size.
