Short Answer

It's complicated and you probably don't want to.

Work on allowing users to package/HTMLify TurboWarp is ongoing: https://garbomuffin.github.io/p3/

Long Answer

The code generated by TurboWarp is not designed to be read or edited by humans. Attempting to do so would be actively harmful to one's learning because of the many unusual things done to improve compatability or performance.

For example, in regular JavaScript accessing a list item is as simple as myList[myIndex], but TurboWarp does (b1.value[(b0.value | 0) - 1] ?? "") or listGet(b0, b1.value) depending on what assumptions it can make. b0 and b1 are real variable names that TurboWarp will use and listGet is a magic function that's part of the TurboWarp runtime. The code also lacks any formatting.
