I have created an exposition of Hamilton's stationary action that is visualization based. The visualizations consist of interactive diagrams. Each diagram represents a case where the visitor can sweep out a range of trial trajectories (using a slider), to home in on the true trajectory.
The three main diagrams have multiple sliders, allowing the visitor to make a local adjustment to the trial trajectory. The diagrams display how the kinetic energy and the potential energy respond to change of the trial trajectory.

The objective of the exposition is to make Hamilton's stationary action entirely transparent.
