An experimental infinite canvas web browser

One thing AI is good for is being able to quickly, very quickly, prototype experiments, and scratch those itches that otherwise would fester as an idea until I thought over it in my head over and over and over until I was convinced it was going to be the greatest thing ever.

One such idea is the ability to navigate the web using an infinite canvas. I wondered how useful it would be to have multiple browser windows in a single view, and be able to easily zoom/pan around a collection of browser tabs. So I set out to spend as little effort building a prototype to get a feel for what that might look like.

After playing around with this, I actually quite like it! Am I going to push on with it and build a browser, almost certainly not. But maybe someone else might be interested in running with this idea?
