The Art of Less
summary
Claims concrete: demonstrates a 1K spinning globe, shows Tetris squeezed to <140 bytes, and recreates a Matrix rain in ~500–1000 characters using canvas. Tools and tricks include Unicode escape encoding, octal escapes, the function Constructor eval pattern and a “Scrabble” string‑assembly method built from false/true/undefined. Several live minified projects run in the browser and the demos execute as described, with code that self‑outputs and decodes then animates successfully.
