     OK, so I just spent quite some time writing functions that allows me to export a number as a byte array from GMP, and then a different function to do that same with Java bigints, so that the output formats are compatible.

     I now need to do the same for Javascript.

     I'm doing this because I want to implement a binary serialisation format for Kap.

     And why did I start to implement a binary serialisation format? Well, I needed it because I wanted to be able to export and import Kap objects to Valkey.

     Once I have all of that, then maybe I can build something on top of Valkey. Some kind of persistence system perhaps.

     Is this the definition of yak shaving?
