The artifact
Fig. 1
What the repository shows
1,546 lines across five files, no build step and no framework, written in a fortnight over the end of December 2023. The stack the previous portfolio recorded is the stack the repository has, which is not true of every record it kept.What the application does beyond typing, and why it was written, are not established by the source and are not guessed at here.
