Block must be built with javascript or typescript

Does this mean that *entire solution*has to be written in js?
Suppose we wanted to use s3, Kafka, etc in the pipeline?

  Hi, you're welcome to use other services & your own backend.

  The block is the piece that will run inside Airtable and provide the frontend UI. That needs to be built with Javascript or Typescript and needs to be open-sourced for the contest.

  So is it possible to design *any* webpage or GUI with custom blocks?

  Could I for example, design the YouTube homepage or the New York Times?

  You can certainly design something that looks like the YouTube home page, but note that custom blocks run inside the Airtable app.
