TutorialKit.rb: interactive Ruby gem docs powered by Wasm
summary
Framework runs a full Rails dev environment entirely in the browser by embedding RubyWasm into a StackBlitz-style web container and using Wazi VFS for gems and a pre-open workspace for writable files. Grant-funded work adds a JS bridge for outbound HTTP (optionally routed through a self-hosted Cloudflare worker) and a deferred packing build that cuts repeated 30‑minute interpreter rebuilds while avoiding a prior 10 seconds penalty caused by frequent wasm⇄JS syscalls; demos (Rails guide, Action Policy) work end-to-end.
