HTML and CSS Orbits

Inspiration

Modeling the famous 3-body problem, but I had to (really) dumb it down a bit.

What it does

Shows simple circular orbits.

How I built it

Wordpress, C#, CSS, and some HTML.

Challenges I ran into

Initially, I wanted to use python to model orbits, but since I wanted it to be on the web and to be accessible, I had to switch to using CSS keyframes.

Accomplishments that I'm proud of

Getting SSL figured out. Last time I tried doing it, I went into a wild goose chase, but this time it wasn't too hard.

What I learned

Don't repeat code.

What's next for HTML Orbits

I want add elliptical orbits and maybe some user-defined orbits too. Eventually maybe an n-body simulation.
