I use graphene not for security but because it doesn't come with any Google surveillance stuff. Let's be realistic if some 3 letters agency really want some data about me, there's …

I'm thinking of building a long term living app (say an app that I will use the next 30 years). It has to be a web app so I was thinking of going pure JS. With that requirements in…
