@LuisMendo Just pushed a version of the site that uses a sliding drawer for the documentation. Check that out and let me know what you think

Also I tweaked the web server config so hopefully things will run the first time. Let me know if they don't as there are a few more optimizations I need to make before we go live with this

@Suever I think it's great as it is now. By default all screen is available for the important stuff, and documentation only appears when requested. The sliding effect of the help is very nice. And yes, it has worked the first time.
And I like it a lot that the output box automatically rescales. For example, with this example the horizontal slider in the output box appears or disappears depending on whether the documentation is present or not.

For example, with [this](https://matl.suever.net/?code=tYov%22%40uv%21%5Dl15X%22&inputs=%27H3l%7C%40%21%27&version=18.4.0) example the horizontal slider in the output box appears or disappears depending on whether the documentation is present or not.

Not really important, but I still think the left ands right margins are wasted space. Can they be made smaller? But then, I don't know about web design and very little about web aesthetics
Link test:

The link format seems to be working. I probably got something wrong in the second link above (can't edit anymore)
I can see now that the documentation takes some time to load, as you said. Little time, but noticeable. So it's also good that that initial delay is now avoided

@LuisMendo So the size of those margins is governed by Bootstrap (the framework I'm using). A lot of websites anymore use these types of padded designs and they do that so that there are only 5 possible sizes of your website (i.e. desktop, tablet, phone, etc.). Makes it a lot easier to design.
Now that the documentation slides, I believe we will have plenty of room for code and output so I don't think it's really an issue at this point. There are other frameworks out there that we could look into eventually
This kind of fixes the annoyances we saw when we had it take up 100% of the screen and the documentation was really wide and some points and too narrow at others.

@Suever Oh, I see. I'd definitely leave as it is then. And as you say, margins are not important anymore now that there's plenty of room. The look with this framework is great

@LuisMendo Yea once you start looking for the fixed-width layouts you'll see it everywhere. SE uses it as well.
