The Web App will reply any valid *.nim plain text source code file with CrossCompiled stripped native binary executables for Linux and Windows, including the SHA1 CheckSums directly on the browser (it compiles, does not run).

No extra hardening security features are in place for this feature, because the Web App is designed to be used on Local Offline Wifi or LAN, on Hackathons, HackLabs, Meetups, Workshops, and IRL Events, check firejails or docker for this, disable if you expect malware code.
