It's awesome when you can't work without Internet! I am traveling around South America and offline docs and editors are a godsend right now.

I was interested in trying it out for doing pair programming. Didn't get so far before I gave up though.

* Login with Github, trying to import project, didn't work.

* Setup demo application, trying to find how to try it out.

* After looking around ~5 minutes, found the "open web server url" link

* "An error has occurred: {"code":"ECONNREFUSED","errno":"ECONNREFUSED","syscall":"connect"}" as response when using the url

* Trying to open up terminal to debug, terminal loading never ends

* Open up logs console thing, blank file.

* Closed tab and gave up

Heh, still got the chrome plugin, which replaces 'the cloud' with 'my butt'.

It makes tech-news a charm to read.

You probably mean caret? (not cursor since it does not exist a cursor in iOS)

Looks very impressive. Can't get a new blank Java project to compile or run yet though (java: command not found). May be doing something wrong.

Sorry, We don't include java in the current VMs, but it's coming soon.

OK, too bad.

Any other limitations to know about?

Like I said: looks very promising!

* Login with Github, trying to import project, didn't work. -> Is it a public or private project ? Can you give me the github url ?

* "An error has occurred: {"code":"ECONNREFUSED","errno":"ECONNREFUSED","syscall":"connect"}" as response when using the url -> The "open web server url" link open the port 5000 of your VM, you need to run something on this port before accessing it.

* Trying to open up terminal to debug, terminal loading never ends -> It seems there is an issue connecting you browser using websocket.
