Interesting note, you say "this is how the bitcoin virtual machine works" but what do you mean by that? Is it interpreted to C like how ruby interprets to C? Is it like "The java virtual machine" in that way?
For me, what was missing from this tutorial, was a way to get the state of the program at any point in time during its execution for debugging purposes. Helps me understand where I am and what I need next. The explanation of how the program executes and what its looking for at each step was helpful, but being able to stop the program execution see what's going on, change something and restart in the IDE or something would be nice....
Maybe one day I'll understand this well enough to write a testnet wallet one day.

It is interpreted by node software and wallet software, which pass the arguments through the functions (usually reimplemented in their own programming languages), and if -- after running -- there is a single 1 on the stack, they accept the transaction as valid, otherwise they consider it invalid
The scriptwiz ide lets you debug your programs by viewing the results at every line of code -- check out https://ide.scriptwiz.app and hit me up on telegram if you have any questions
Yes! You can do it! I am happy to help you out at every step, just ask :) I can direct you to additional developer resources and things like that
