Note, context menus aren't always right click (rather, it's more like "secondary click")... left-handers, gamers, etc reprogram stuff all the time. https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Events/mousedown Look at the 'button' property, which tells you which button was just pressed; these refer to the more common right-handed arrangement. It goes on to describe how their order could be reversed, but that's annoying... if you remember that primary starts with 0, you can avoid the left/right stuff.
