Ugh guys... The front page of your project is the most important thing there is. If you can't even be bothered to write it yourself then I don't have much hope for the rest of your project.
And it doesn't seem to render correctly on mobile. I hit this myself trying to vibe up a side project; it looked slick, but it took multiple prompts (and at least an uploaded screenshot or two) just to make it mobile friendly.

How does profiling the binary play into this? Elsewhere the hypothesis is "it crashes", whereas profiling is about performance.

What does that mean? Vx doesn't treat the accelerator as infrastructure? Vx doesn't have a large opaque runtime? "You write math, Vx treats it as semantics". I don't understand that.
Can sort of make sense of the transfer and performance bit as: the location is encoded as part of the data type instead of some sort of automatic spillover to main memory that will behave differently based on data size.
