This tool does benchmarks and lists vulkan/opengl capabilities. It's a bit more than a glorified command line frontend.

Why would you jump through all these hoops instead of just writing C++ if you want "C with generics"

The real answer: it's more fun this way.

Why do pixel device trees have to be updated through different Android versions? If so the differences would be minor, right?

How about compiling client-side with wasm, fully or partially? Feasible? Was it considered?

Some of the compilers they use (msvc) are not open source and are not allowed to run in wasm. And porting entire compiler toolchains to wasm would be a gargantuan task.

I've been working on a Virtual DOM in C. Basically like dear imgui but it uses a retained-mode toolkit like GTK instead of rendering manually.

It technically violates the Apple Developer Agreement AFAIK, but that seems like yet another lawsuit waiting to happen IMO.

People have been doing hackintoshes and macos VMs for years... And apple hasn't really done anything. So I doubt this tool will provoke them.

I use a from-scratch python script that generates a bunch of html files which are pushed to GitHub pages
