Better Web IDE

Chrome 'first app' covers complete basics of how the apps work. It's dead simple: http://developer.chrome.com/apps/first_app

For the current code:

• follow the instructions in the readme
  
• When running, right-click and 'inspect element', and you can get to the console
  
• You can change code on the disk, right-click and 'reload app', or I believe you can actually develop right inside Chrome if you need to.
  
  

But there's the refactor branch that will hopefully be a hell of a lot easier to get to grips with and modify, so I'd work from that.

The one annoyance right now is the way you don't seem to be able to load JavaScript files from within JS code. It might be I'm missing something, but right now it seems like you have to include scripts from main.html :(
