15 lines* Fun fact: The IIFE is no longer necessary as top-level `await` was introduced in the ES2022 spec 🙂

Right :) But it requires marking the file as mjs or something.

You can say there are like 3 actual lines of code, the rest is boilerplate :)

No blog post since June 2025? I’m curious about what’s coming next or what’s being worked on. The UX still feels kinda janky with the system messages. And the lack of multi-device is still confusing (although not a deal breaker). I just want clarity since that feature is considered table stakes these days.
