What does this PR do?

An immersive, atmospheric kite-flying simulation quest that teaches the critical JavaScript performance concepts of debouncing and throttling. Players pilot a high-altitude kite against chaotic, rapid-fire wind gusts (representing high-frequency DOM events), choosing between a debounce mechanism (acting only after wind turbulence settles for a set duration) and a throttle mechanism (executing adjustments at fixed, regular intervals). The kite's real-time altitude and stability are directly driven by the actual timing math of your event-handling strategy.

Closes #805

Checklist

  • I have read the Contributing Guide
  • My branch follows the naming convention (add/tool-name, feat/description, or fix/description)
  • I have tested my changes locally in at least one modern browser

For new tools:

  • The tool is a single self-contained .html file in the tools/ folder
  • The filename is kebab-case (e.g. json-formatter.html)
  • I added an entry to data/tools.json with all required fields
  • I added a screenshot as tools/<tool-name>.png next to the HTML file
  • No JS frameworks (React, Vue, Angular, etc.) or heavy UI libraries (Bootstrap JS, jQuery, etc.)
  • CDN links for lightweight libraries and fonts are fine — no copy-pasting library source code inline
  • I ran node scripts/sort-norm.js data/tools.json to sort and normalize the tools registry
  • I ran node scripts/build.js and verified the landing page renders correctly

For enhancements / bug fixes:

  • I have not introduced any external dependencies
  • The tool still works as a standalone single HTML file
