Still, I see it is actually called "Michelson Interferometer Educational Kit", not "Michelson–Morley" and the user guide I'm reading (your link gives "The resource you are looking for has been removed", so

Wonderful answer, thanks! Do you know if the "Michelson-Morley educational kit" is really enough to achieve the accuracy of the original experiment or is it just to make "any" functioning interferometer?

Do you know if even longer ranges logged there, like 600, are practically useful or are they too short (in time) for that? https://online.ligo.org/grafana/public-dashboards/1a0efabe65...

I'd expect that you could achieve the speed that won't be perceptibly different from the "preprocessed". The modern browsers JIT the JS code and the canvas abstractions map correctly to the hardware. A better fill algori

If I understand your question it is: Is it possible to write zig modules which would be liked to the bigger project otherwise written in C, C++ & c? And moreover, to produce C "blobs" from zig sources which would be then part

Can you write about the reasons for much faster builds, as far as you know? Is it mainly due to the zig's caching of the build artifacts?
