This was the original description on the SeattleJS site:

Over the pandemic, people developed a wide variety of hobbies to fill the time, and for me, that was writing a ridiculous amount of fanfiction. One of the most ambitious pieces was an interactive, choice-based and animated story written using Ink and ‘set’ with Preact and InkJS, and this talk goes through some of the creative and technical decisions I made to get them to play nicely with each other.
