Break the Wall is a macOS Electron app that uses AI to decompose a wall of text into an exploded view of interconnected parts, each linked to exact source lines. Users can then run scenarios (predicted effects, load tests removing premises) and reassemble the structure, aiming to make complex explanations explorable and testable. It's an interesting blend of reverse-engineering ideas, interactive visualization, and AI-assisted text analysis.

Target audience: educators, students, technical writers, curious learners
