Excellent!

I've added an entry that links to your new tool from our list of "other tools" 
for Metamath. The change is here:
- 
https://github.com/metamath/metamath-website-seed/commit/7225664b017c800033511abdcff22f390005da34
I linked to the redirecting web page, the repo, and the video.

We regenerate the website daily, so that will be visible tomorrow at this 
location:
https://us.metamath.org/other.html#mmtools

I have a few quick comments about your tool:
* I suggest adding tooltips to every icon, at least with a short name. Then 
people can hover over an icon & learn what it does. I would never guess that 
then 5-points-star is "unify" :-).
* Currently it uses "class1" etc. as a working variable, but these are easily 
confused with specific names. I suggest using mmj2's convention that &C1 is a 
working variable. Those are easier to distinguish, and it'd look more like mmj2 
as well.
* Once proving in the bottom-up direction is added, for many this will begin to 
be be comparable to mmj2's functionality, while being a LOT easier to install. 
mmj2 has a number of specialized tricks, but I don't know if they're as 
commonly used.
  - mmj2 does have mechanisms to prove specific patterns, but those are written 
in JavaScript and might be easily to copy over to a tool already written in 
JavaScript.
  - mmj2's ability to check definitions is awesome, but probably not critical 
for a proof assistant.

I hope you'll be willing to continue work on it, it looks promising.
