LibreJS support #9

idk2848 commented 4 months ago

Hello and thank you for making this project. I find it better than the simulator available on transfemscience and I also appreciate how it is free software and includes the data it bases the numbers it uses on for calculations

I would like to request that:

Many users concerned about their digital freedom make use of the LibreJS browser extension and/or the GNU IceCat browser to avoid accidentally executing programs which are proprietary through their browser (see The Javacript Trap[1]). As this web based program is free software I think it should be marked as such so that it is usable with the LibreJS extension by default

I would have opened a PR for this myself as I thought it would be easy, however I noticed that the webpage this project is hosted serves obfuscated javascript, stripping whitespace, comments and meaningful variable names. Obfuscated javascript cannot be considered Free any more than decompiled assembly code can

Documentation on Setting Your Javacript Free is available here[2]

Thank you in advance

Thanks for bringing this to my attention, we were experimenting with webpack, might revert to readable javascript in the future.

Next version will be back to readable javascript.
