Exactly. The versioning system is definitely unique and controversial, but I think it fits for a fast moving project like this, so I don't have to really consider versioning which …

Hey, dev here, I agree that is an interesting application which Porffor could potentially help with! Happy to chat sometime :)

Good comparison and thanks! A few minor clarifications: - Porffor isn't fully self-hosted yet but should be possible hopefully! It does partially compile itself for builtins (eg Ar…

For now, unless it is given a literal string (eg `eval('42')`) eval just won't work.

Agreed, I have it behind a flag because of this, in the (far) future I could enable by default if I write a type checker built-in or something. Thank you!

JS is a language I can cobble together something hacky in and I don't have to care about types or anything yet, just making something work. It's fun! :)

Zoom isn't taken into account so probably why it looks bad. The FPS is locked to your monitor's frame rate (or what your browser provides, LibreWolf might always send 60 to avoid f…

It is technically memory safe :^)

Nope! It uses Wasm (really WASI) builds of existing JS engines ;)
