I had not heard of wigglypaint but I've heard of John Earnest before and he's done some incredibly cool things. Notable are:

- Decker (https://beyondloom.com/decker/index.html), a quasi-recreation of 80s Hypercard; wigglypaint was (AFAIK) written in it.

- ok, (https://johnearnest.github.io/ok/index.html) an interpreter for the `k` language in Javascript. (`k` is a proprietary language that's kind of a melding of Lisp and APL; I keep meaning to learn it to see if it's as terrible as it sounds.)

Anyway, everyone should check out his stuff. There's a lot of awesomeness there.
