What it is

Browser frontend for the IsaacNet proxy.

What broke, and what I’d change

Not written yet. This is the part only I can write — what actually went wrong, and what I’d do differently. It lives in builds/reflections/isaacnet-browser.md (see _TEMPLATE.md); as soon as that file has words in it, this section fills in on the next build.

Everything else on this page — the spec, the version history, the file counts — is generated from the project’s own build notes and files, so nothing here is guesswork.
