Thanks for taking an interest!
I personally wrote the code behind Sandstorm's "appdemo" feature, which is what the "Try it now" button links to, from the Etherpad front page. Etherpad itself is not written by me; it's written by many other great people.
See e.g. https://github.com/sandstorm-io/sandstorm/commits?author=paulproteus&page=2 https://github.com/sandstorm-io/sandstorm/commits?author=pau...
I also wrote this blog post about the feature: https://blog.sandstorm.io/news/2015-02-06-app-demo.html https://blog.sandstorm.io/news/2015-02-06-app-demo.html
Happy to answer other questions if you have them!
- kentonv 11y agoYou also wrote the pull request adding the button to etherpad.org.
- paulproteus 11y agoTrue! https://github.com/ether/ether.github.com/pull/21 https://github.com/ether/ether.github.com/pull/21
- paulproteus 11y agoOne other possibly-cool thing is that any open source web app, when packaged for Sandstorm, can get a "Try it now" button of your own. That's what I explain at https://blog.sandstorm.io/news/2015-02-06-app-demo.html https://blog.sandstorm.io/news/2015-02-06-app-demo.html but I figure it's worth stating clearly here in a comment, to save people a click.
- dang 11y agoOk, great! We put "Show HN" back in the title. We also added "Sandstorm-powered" in an attempt to make it more explanatory.
- paulproteus 11y agoThanks so much, dang!
