All the values are based on scaling, since if you zoom on the page, everything's going to scale, so .. Just assume everything!!!
font sizes are generally either pt or em, with pt being something you set specifically, and em being a scale based on what*snip*

My head can solve that in Canvas. Work out the widths of all three bits of text, and if any are too wide for the box, make the box double height and add a CR midway through the text.
Job done.
But doing that in CSS, though..!?!
Eeek!

A free flying bird, or a super agile cat...? Which to choose?
Probably cat. The cat gets plenty of roaming opportunities, and they get lovely cuddles from all the people in their lovely warm home.
And leftovers.

Managing CSS

I've never tried doing it in html/css, but I often find that a good way to get a grip of layout stuff is to build a Testcard generator that can scale to different sizes and ratios and whatnot, but still resemble a testcard.

It's the ''for the rest of your life'' bit that gets me.
If it were a night, or a week, and I had enough provisions, food-wise, I'd probably go with something like Hobbycraft.
I bet that would be fun.
But a lifetime?!

As someone who laptops on their lap, anything external (mouse included) proves to be cumbersome and awkward to use.

Yeah, no numpad's the dealbreaker for me, there. I know I'm having to put up with a bloody MacBook without a numpad, but it is what it is.. If I'm specifically buying just a keyboard, nowadays, it's going to have a numpad!!!

Currently Ableton on Mac, but before that KorgGadget on iPad, before that FLStudio on Windows, and before that OctaMED on Amiga.

Tiny Tank (working title) - porting

31st July 2023

Assuming you're using standard canvas, one thing you want to avoid is Scale AND Rotate AND Alpha, all at the same time. Shove those together and you'll have super-slowdown. Pick 2 at a time, and not all three.
This is why particles in GotoJSE wi*snip*

Cool plan. Good luck with the conversion.
It should run fast enough. The hardest part will be getting the tilemap to draw fast enough, whilst also filling the screen... though it depends on a number of factors.

Additional thought. What happens if you hook it up to the phone via USB? Will it charge?! And how long would it take to recharge that way?! And thinking ahead, could you maybe integrate a small connector into the strap somehow?!!

I dunno, sounds better than a lot of modern day watches I've heard about lately, and you've got off-the-shelf components, not like a super-optimised battery, or anything.
I'd say a day's pretty good.
