I've been working on this over the last couple of weeks. The idea is that you can can start a session (click the number at the bottom and choose "independent"). Then other devices can subscribe to it (by entering the id as 'other').
I've built it for:
* demos during talks
* workshop/hack sessions
…seems to work okay so far, but I'd love to know what people think.
- brudgers 10y ago0: If it meets the guidelines, this might make a good "Show HN", because there is something to play with and want feedback. Guidelines: https://news.ycombinator.com/showhn.html https://news.ycombinator.com/showhn.html 1: Right now, the page does not pass the 'what is it?' test at a meaningful level. I mean I know I'm looking at some JavaScript and something that looks like it's output, but after reading your comment that's not the important bit. 2: For feedback purposes, I think providing instruction/explanation on the page would be a big improvement. That could be as simple as the explanation you just provided. The implementation could be as minimal as commenting the code or more elaborately an HTML "header". 3: As a tool shared with other people, 'What it is' is the first thing people need to know. So a "product" landing page (could be as simple as text) is probably appropriate. to move instructions out of the implementation. A more elaborate version might have a hyperlink to a code repository...'how to get it' is probably the second piece of infrastructure for a "product". 4: Using Firefox, "back" was broken. 5: It's not clear what javascript functionality is available and what is not. I could create DOM elements but not add them to the output. That's the sort of documentation that a 'product' needs. Good luck.
