It’s already a reality, I was doing it about ten years ago.

require.js was a big piece of the puzzle, allowing the use of modules in browser without a build step.

The only time a “build” happened was to concat/minify scripts for production release, but even this wasn’t strictly necessary.

There were other pieces involved, but we had a powerful stack (aforementioned modules, css preprocessing, reactive templating) that had a faster and easier workflow than anything happening today.

I don't know anything about modulating LEDs, but could that high freq. have anything to do with the quiet but audible whine I hear when the light is on? Seems like it could be 8kish.

Works well. How much are you pulling from the video title and description?

The idea of impossible fingerings is ambiguous - I can play that D minor voicing in that position as 2 - 4 - 4 - 3. It'd be interesting to see if you could take a set of samples from the user first and apply that to your algorithm. Also useful would be something that purely takes a set of pitches as input, and produces fingerings with the same pitches across various fretted\open strings (and possibly allowing for octave transposition).

This is the problem with "knowledge by web article" in general, isn't it? Blindly following best practices, rather than developing any true understanding of the task at hand.

"With the new versions of ES, my code is more independent from external sources."

What about all of those external sources brought in to support building\transpiling\source map generation\whatever?

Web engineers are waiting for stuff to compile these days? I thought things were supposed to be moving forward, not backward.

What is a "level" of security? If I'm able to inject arbitrary code into your page, with it I can access your local storage data, but I can't access your "http only" cookies - so there's at least some "level" of difference.
