The jscad worker code was hosted as a static asset, making it odd
javascript where we have to be conscious of what javascript features we
can use and if it will work on older browsers, plus it can't be
typescript like the rest of the codebase.
Since redwood 0.36 we using webpack 5 should make loading workers easy
https://webpack.js.org/guides/web-workers/
But I had trouble with this (see:
https://community.redwoodjs.com/t/has-anyone-tried-workers-with-webpack-5-rw0-36-x/2394)
and instead used the webpack 4 loader without any issues
This issue relates to #411 , and is a checklist item on #444Resolves#494
added some magic to get scripts to efficiently encoded into the URL.
We're using pako to compress the script, but this outputs to a 8bit
array. Stringifying this array adds a lot of overhead, because "125"
has three characters in it.
Instead we're using the character codes to turn these a bit numbers
into single characters base64 is used as well because not all of the
characters are allowed in a url (and b64 is better than
encodeURIComponent).
