nope, we compile it that way because makecode’s typescript is different than stock typescript, and this gives us more flexibility in how the code runs. ---

Me having little fun using devTools to repeatedly find makecode’s code that gets run, to see what is faster than others 🤣 . (calling functions, using if statements, and using loops all cause it to show slow down (Thankfully gemini was the one searching the 1.9 MB code and not me).) ---

This thread made me more confused the more I scrolled down ---

@richard, to make sure I’m finding them all, all the sim files are here: - every ts file in pxt - every ts file in pxt-common-packages that is inside a folder named sim Is that everything? Or are there some pxt files that aren’t sim, some pxt-common-packages files that are sim, or some files in pxt-arcade that are sim? I want to make a list of every sim function, so that people can probably make faster code. ---

the UI of the sim (like the console itself) is in a private repo, but i don’t think there is anything in there that is relevant to what you’re doing. ---

@richard pxsim functions are faster than the ones I make (since pxsim is in real js), so there’s a chance that since functions could replace some code I have, and if so, I might be able to make faster code! ---

also I mean pxsim functions I can use through shims, the UI of the sim _probably_ isn’t shimmable [Previous page](https://forum.makecode.com/t/questions-about-makecode-c-sound/42721.md?page=2)
