Research direction

Start by inspecting the REPL page at https://ladybirdbrowser.github.io/libjs-website/repl/ and the failing libjs-data/libjs.js URL, then check how the website references that dependency. Verify the libjs-data repository and its build or published contents. Done means the REPL loads in Firefox and Chrome without the reported 404 or related JavaScript errors.

Description

When I navigate to https://ladybirdbrowser.github.io/libjs-website/repl/ I'm just stuck on the loading screen (both Firefox & Chrome).

It fails to load https://ladybirdwebbrowser.github.io/libjs-data/libjs.js (404) which is causing JS errors in the page.

I think that means the libjs.js file is missing from https://github.com/LadybirdBrowser/libjs-data but I did not investigate any further.
