Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Over the past couple of days, I've been exploring the Elementa library, trying to create a button on the main menu screen. However, I’ve encountered numerous difficulties.

Firstly, I find the usage tutorials to be insufficiently detailed. I noticed that the buttons in Essential Mod’s main menu are visually appealing and even come with tooltips.

However, during my own implementation, I kept running into various errors. I reviewed the Essential Mod’s code and found that it integrates a ToolTip class and even includes VanillaConstraints. Unfortunately, I couldn’t find these in the Elementa library itself.

Describe the solution you'd like
I request that the various utility tools integrated in Essential Mod, which are built on top of Elementa, be ported to the Elementa library to make them more accessible for developers.

If possible, I also hope the tutorials can be improved.

Describe alternatives you've considered
None.

Additional context
Thank you so much for your efforts; Elementa is truly a great project, and I’m eager to use it effectively. However, without the convenient functions provided by Essential, it’s extremely challenging to work with. I spent an entire day trying to figure out how to align a button’s constraints with the vanilla main menu buttons but still couldn’t get it right.
