How to use Handwired: what you can do with it

What is Handwired? Handwired turns regular JavaScript code into a neural net with no training: if-else, loops and state become matrix multiplication and reglu over floats. The result is exact and fully differentiable, and runs on JS or WebGPU.

How do I use it? Try the live demos at chenglou.me/handwired first; then run git clone on the repo and then bun install; run bun start to run the demos locally. Full steps below.
