Hold my beer!

Life is too short to do something useful so why not encode all your site's Javascript code into a PNG image and then decode it on demand.

(This is a terrible idea. Don’t do it. Just for fun)

this is quite cool. how do you convert the file to a png?

Why is this a terrible idea?

I'm thinking I can Whatsapp friends a huge letter as an image and they could use my toy app to decode it ;-)

A PHP script does the conversion, basically takes the code converts to a base64 png.

Awesome project.
