As a high schooler interested in things that are probably out of my league, I love reading this kind of stuff. The author mentions their unconventional style at the beginning: hyperlinks, color, italics, exclamations, parentheses, side notes, etc. They address your thoughts and craft their explanations around them instead of being terse and optimizing for length.

The author's blog [1] has more of this style and has really helped me get deeper into category theory. Without it, I wouldn't have even begun to try and understand things like the Yoneda lemma (which still remains a mystery to me).

Does anyone know any other papers or resources with this style? Maybe something like "explorable explanations" [2]?
