Thinkserver: My web-based coding environment

I've made my own web-based coding environment for working on little projects. A few years ago I found Glitch. It's great: a web-based coding environment that makes it really easy to quickly start edit

But over time, as more and more of my stuff ended up living on Glitch, I was a bit uneasy about relying on someone else's service, and I also wanted to make some changes that would be idiosyncratic. This weekend, I got antsy about how many things I have in this server with no backup, so I spent some time adding tools to commit to a Git repository and push it to my home Forgejo instance. I spent a few hours making a very complicated system for doing git commits through the web interface before I remembered that Jujutsu (jj) exists, and switched to that.
