HN comment orderThis looks nice and oddly nostalgic. One bit of feedback: each time I toggled the checkbox I expected the checkmark to look slightly different, as if it were being redrawn by hand each time. Adding some "noise" might be a neat feature for a version 2.0.
After working on http://roughjs.com/ I thought it would be interesting to create common sketchy UI components that worked like actual controls. Web components seemed liked the obvious tech for that. So, yeah, here's wired-elements.
