this week, I made a javascript runtime from scratch by way of a custom harness (which I lovingly refer to as my haiku sweatshop). just managed to get it running social-app! all on the $20 claude plan

I thought Apple doesn't allow runtimes other than its own on iOS.

that’s specifically for web browsers. you’re allowed to run JavaScript in your app however you want
