Notable resource provides "State Constitution Tool"

I just saw this week this (new?) website, called "State Constitution Tool."  In a brief foray, I have found this resource pretty easy to navigate as a means to find state constitutional provisions related to a particular topic, such as "punishments" or "Due Process & Court Access."  The About page describing the resource starts this way:

The State Constitution Tool was developed by lawyers and scholars with expertise in constitutional law. They share a desire to equip other lawyers and the general public with the ability to identify, analyze, and compare different constitutions by topic.

Other research tools and commentaries categorize constitutions according to the author’s interests and opinions. The State Constitution Tool is unique because it allows users to draw their own comparisons directly from the source – the text of constitutions.
