In the store code in the apps, I know why you need the "weird hack"

[AverseABFun]

In the code

    for (repo in repos) {
        const repoItem = document.createElement('div')
        repoItem.innerText = repo
        repoItem.onclick = function() {
            loadappListScreen(repoItem.innerText) // Weird hack to work around the fact that repo doesn't work but the innertext of the repoitem does
        }
        repoItem.className = "repoItem"
        repoList.appendChild(repoItem)
    }

The weird hack is necessary because you are looping through repos and thus changing repo. However, repoItem is scoped inside the loop and thus isn't changing. Therefore, you can get repoItem.innerText to get the correct value. Also, the reason this is only an issue here, is because repoItem.onclick is running after the loop has ended and thus repo has been changed to final value in repos.
