Ha!  Silly me.  I started poking around other places before I even looked in the home directory.

Still, though, it's got some cool-because-it's-possible points, but what would be a practical application of a JavaScript PC emulator in an age where virtualization is a commodity?

Look in hello.c, which is in the directory you land in when the page
finishes loading:

/* This C source can be compiled with:
   tcc -o hello hello.c
*/
