Description

  • The JS code uses tip 215 times and leaf 96 times. We should settle on using just one of these terms, to make it easier to use the code.

  • The selection menu module is named SelectedNodeMenu, but the file is named select-node-menu.js. Would be good to make this consistent.

These are just minor things that will make maintaining the project a bit easier.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Search for all uses of 'tip' and 'leaf' in JavaScript files to determine which term is more appropriate; rename the file 'select node menu.js' to 'selected node menu.js' and update imports.
