first: looks very cool.

now, historically, i'd look at the language choice and ask myself, "would i want to set up a JVM" to run this kotlin app? oh, it's kotlin and python and the installation happens through pipenv?

two different ideas strike me now:

1. would it be worth throwing this at an LLM and having it write it in a different language,

2. if i was just consuming a bundled binary (e.g. go or rust), would i have such reluctance?

i think distribution is becoming increasingly important, making nonsense details like pipenv and whichever version of the JVM is present much greater friction.
