I was really confused about what a JIT "Compiler" for a JavaScript framework means, but it turns out it means something like I've done myself.

My site https://c50.fingswotidun.com/ uses the same trick to generate code for the image generation.

Between the confusion of what Compile, JIT, Engine, Runtime, and FrameWork is (which I blame Bun a little bit for starting this entire Runtime/Engine confusion). I think we might need some new terminology to describe this method.

Maybe a made-up word is needed, JIT was good in that an acronym with a vowel made it wordable and specific.
