    I'm curious to see how the limitation of using pyodide packages only will play out for non-trivial builds. Thinking of all the non-pure python code out there that need to be manual…

    They mention the generation needs a plist from an actual Apple device, and provide one of their own in the repository. I wonder what Beeper does. Maybe they have just one serial nu…
