A whole website in a single JavaScript file
I mean, this is a &quot;single file website&quot; in the sense that `&lt;iframe src=&quot;<a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;google.com&quot;&gt;&lt;&#x2F;iframe&gt;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;google.com&quot;&gt;&lt;&#x2F;iframe&gt;</a>` is a &quot;search engine implementation in one line of code&quot;.<p>The only semi-interesting thing here is that this demo pulls dependencies from 3rd party registries via HTTP without an explicit install step. It&#x27;s really not that different than doing regular Node.js development with a committed node_modules (hi, Google), except that if node.land or crux.land go down, you&#x27;ve lost your reproducibility.<p>The thing about &quot;familiar&#x2F;modern techonologies&quot; seem like superficial vanity. A vanilla Node.js equivalent might look something like this<p><pre><code>    import {createServer} from &#x27;http&#x27;
    import {parse} from &#x27;url&#x27;

    const route = path =&gt; {
      switch (path) {
        case &#x27;&#x2F;&#x27;: return home()
        case &#x27;&#x2F;about&#x27;: return about()
        default: return error()
      }
    }

    const home = () =&gt; `Hello world`
    &#x2F;&#x2F; etc...

    createServer((req, res) =&gt; {
      res.write(route(parse(req.url)))
      res.end()
    }).listen(80)
</code></pre>
Which is really not anything to write home about, nor an intimidating monstrosity by any measure. Serving cacheable HTML is really not rocket science, it simply does not require &quot;the latest and greatest&quot; anything.
