Nice idea as a faster incremental development tool, but not something that one should run in production.

  Why not? Stick an HTTP cache (Varnish, Cloudflare, whatever) in front of it, and I see no reason not to do the preprocessing on the fly. Also: "Harp apps run directly with the built-in web server, or exported to HTML, CSS & JS, putting you in full control of your production environment."

    I agree, I'd run it production. Full disclosure: I know the team. But I'm a fan of the approach!

    Just because you can, doesn't mean you should.

      Again, why not? It would reduce the number of differences between dev and production, for one.

      >"A witty saying proves nothing." Node + Varnish + (optionally) CDN is a very production-ready stack for serving static content.
