I've given it some thought, and have decided that your tool may indeed be helpful. I've added a link to the box challenge page, and have told students that they can use if if they're having trouble, but must limit it to their first 100. Also, I don't have any issues with you placing ads on that page, as long as it's within reason. No reason you shouldn't benefit from your own creation, after all.

Great app! Your Reddit post about the Y generator asked for suggestions or changes. I duplicated the code to a new project and modified your code to allow version wider variation between the line angles. I explained the details in my reply to you on Reddit.

The recommendation below is an advertisement. Most of the links here are part of Amazon's affiliate program (unless otherwise stated), which helps support this website. It's also more than that - it's a hand-picked recommendation of something I've used myself. If you're interested, here is a full list.

A lot of my students use these. The last time I used them was when I was in high school, and at the time I felt that they dried out pretty quickly, though I may have simply been mishandling them. As with all pens, make sure you're capping them when they're not in use, and try not to apply too much pressure. You really only need to be touching the page, not mashing your pen into it.

In terms of line weight, the sizes are pretty weird. 08 corresponds to 0.5mm, which is what I recommend for the drawabox lessons, whereas 05 corresponds to 0.45mm, which is pretty close and can also be used.
