gollark: Anyway, see, while node programs don't *need* compilation, this is going into a browser so it needs to:- have libraries bundled with it- have my stylesheet compiled to base CSS- have my JS code be compiled to JS supported by older browsers- have the JS be minified
gollark: The only way to save JS is to rewrite it in RPNcalc.
gollark: No, WASM is cooler.
gollark: No, this is for delivery to browsers, not running on the backend.
