# eli5

Explain like I'm someone who knows nothing about this topic, using a HTML artifact with big pictures and few words.

Invoke the design skill for visual direction, then create the artifact — the purpose is comprehension, the genre a quick visual explainer. Where that skill is unavailable, keep the contrast readable and nothing load-bearing behind interaction.
