Glad to read this. I have resisted the whole HTML5 thing, but it does have inertia.
I think JQT is slick, but in reality, seeing my programs in the browser tickled me in the right way the other day. I was programming in C using Raylib, and it uses emscripten to port it to JavaScript. It runs in the browser! Raylib is a C-based game dev package that allows you to write games in C and deploy to many platforms. I'd love to be able to write and test my J programs in JHS, and then wrap them up for distribution on my website to showcase anything I may be using J to solve or demo. I wish there were more meaty demos in J on just how to use JHS to create a something like Martin Saurer does with his setup and YouTube videos. I would create them if I were skilled enough, but I need to get over the initial bump first with a really good tutorial or video. Are there any JHS gems I may have missed online?
