It's not as much how you can hack around it but more about open-by-default and open-by-design.
- Wowfunhappy 5y agoWell, that was my point about SWF files. You could edit them with the right tools. But like WASM, they are far less editable than the original source files. Unfortunately, there are very practical performance reasons to send information in a "compiled," less-editable format. Which is why even static sites nowadays typically use some type of build system.
- oneplane 5y agoYeah, that's very true. I do wonder if with the 'somewhat standard' min.map files that can point out what the rendered versions relate to in the 'source' versions could somehow be enforced. That way you can still use the compact version first and if you do want to see what's happening you can just get the map and the source and explore.
