## Description

XSection is an educational Chrome extension that teaches cross-sections of polyhedrons by guiding you from 2D representations to 3D Euclidean understanding. With over 105 tasks across 12 subjects, you get step-by-step instructions, a glossary of 35 geometric terms, night mode, and a user-friendly interface that builds your spatial imagination through practice rather than heavy calculations.

It covers prisms, cubes, pyramids, diagonals, and various projection methods, including cross sections and inner/diagonal sections. The puzzle-like format mirrors classic geometry games, helping you progress from basics to challenges while definitions stay at your fingertips—tap a term in any problem to see its meaning. For updates and feedback, stay tuned to the project page.
