This is an RPC server that lets you run Node fs
and child_process
commands in your browser.
It's a shell, that uses that to implement a shell (think bash, not xterm).
It's a tiling windowing system for the browser.
It's a file browser.
It's an editor. (Really just Code Mirror, but editing files on your computer.)
It'll probably be other things too, why not?
Run npm install websocket node-static
Then run node server.js
Then go to http://localhost:8080/console.html
There is no security. It's not secure, be careful.
