The full story
With a lot of help from Claude, the author got the OrcaSlicer and preFlight 3D-printing slicer engines running entirely in the browser as WebAssembly. The build has the full feature set: painting, slicing, assembling and printing models, with a mobile-friendly interface. It also supports direct printing to many printers (often via a CORS proxy) and basic TinkerCAD-style modelling.
