 Quick and dirty. You probably want this for debugging, so just slap this function in wherever you want it.
 
+Minified and full versions are included below. Pick one!

 ## Usage
 
 Call the arrow function to create an arrow in workspace. If you call the function twice with the same name, the second call will replace & reuse the original. This works well when calling from within a Heartbeat event listener to update the arrow every frame.
