Impressive. May I ask what libraries do you use for the menubar and all UI widgets?
Also, is the web a "pretty proxy" that redirect everything to a node.js server which does the actual work?

It's a kind of a Javascript framework called Cappucino, I assume.

Interesting tweet: "... someone made the old @heroku for node.js" -- did Heroku start out as a browser-based app builder?

We use a custom built server on top of V8. Unlike Node it's sync and modelled after http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/mod/prefork.html

Yes they did, they were in the same batch as AppJet as well.

#18Good work. As author of Ace (the source code editor) I'm always happy to see it being used. Do you guys have Cappuccino bindings for Ace you might consider sharing?

Yes, Heroku was the first. I tried it out. It was fun, but I think they realised that though it was a novel idea, it was not the _Big Idea_, and they replaced it with what they now have. That's pretty inspiring when you consider how much work they threw away and how that decision has been rewarded.
