So far, the Wiki only need to contain one thing, so it's right here on the home page.

Tinkercad Shape Generator List

Tinkercad doesn't seem to have an official list of available shapes, but the children need an easy visual reference when they start to learn. It's too fiddly to click through all (currently) 17 lists to find a shape they might need, particularly when they are on a short schedule.

Run this script on each shape generator menu page, to create the html for the Tinkercad shape generator list page:

" <h3>Page "+document.querySelector(".item.active").innerText + "</h3>"+"\n" + " <div class=\"column-image-list\">"+"\n" + (Array.from(document.querySelectorAll(".sidebar-item")).map(item => " <div class=\"image-and-caption\">\n <h4>" + item.querySelector(".item-name").innerText + "</h4>\n <img src='" + item.querySelector(".item-icon img").src + "'>\n </div>" ).join("\n")) + "\n </div>"
