Re: remoteStorage server (JavaScriptSolidServer) + 4 vanilla JS apps (single HTML files)

Wow, amazing results!

I’m travelling now but when I get back to work I want to look into your JSS
work.

For my own part I also want to see how the recent advances in AI for
software engineering (notably since December 2025) can help us make it
(economically) viable to finally build all the open source software that we
have been wanting to build for the last 15 years or so.

It used to be that building a good Unhosted app or Solid app would easily
be 6 months full time work. Nowadays an app of the same quality can
probably be built in 6 hours using AI, which means I think we finally have
a viable chance to make an impact in the real world with our work. So I’m
super excited about the possibilities!

Cheers,
Michiel
