The compilation from the script to the ARM machine code is now done entirely in the browser thanks to the ARM thumb assembler written by Michał Moskal (read the in depth story about building the compiler).
The new compiler is used by the Block Editor, Touch Develop and Code Kingdoms to create the .hex file on the fly without having to rely on an cloud-based C++ compiler.
