So much technical documentation and tutorials and what-have-you seems to want to stay on an entirely conceptual level, when just throwing in a single example can make things so much easier to digest.

Two small things I have loved when I came across them:
5 Min Physics from UQ (PHYS1171) https://teaching.smp.uq.edu.au/fiveminutephysics/index.html#...
Newton's cannon. Look at its beautifully simple source code - one short html + javascript file (I see your javascript code for orbital motion is similarly easy to follow.) https://physics.weber.edu/schroeder/html5/NewtonsCannon4.htm...
Something I was going to further explore, if I had had to do more physics tutoring/teaching: https://www.geogebra.org/m/M4nBYbbG#material/fHHvnhjm
I wonder if you could connect various chapters in the notes with hands on experiments people could try based on data collected from https://phyphox.org/
I installed this app and I was surprised by all the sensors and data it can collect, but I didn't have a particular experiment in mind. It would be awesome to connect the examples and math model with real-world experiments.
What is even cooler, they have a build-your-own-experiment graphical wizard: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EPhhJGdXypg
