And just like that, I found a way to spend a month doing content > marketing writing code.

I absolutely don’t understand the point of this. Just reading the intro, it reads about technology for its own sake, just because you can. But what is the value, what are the downsides?

What about installation and updating/patching? Or is the intention here to still serve this package of web code, db, etc over the net (via cdn maybe), and then execute locally?

What about operational recovery? How does a user of this protect their infomation against device failure / theft / fire ?
