We're aiming for the Rails (and PHP!) crowd you mention with Akshell ( http://www.akshell.com ). Our custom made server uses an Apache MPM like setup with synchronous I/O. Synchronous code is much easier to write and maintain and most real

We would like to think it should be possible to create useful webapps in Akshell within 3 hours and are working to create a set of libraries and standard components to make this possible. See our (old) screencast for an example: http://vim

We got about 1K uniques today before this post. So far we've seen 800 uniques on top of that, with 80+ users concurrently online. This is likely to drop off, as we are no longer on the home page, so the lesson here is that accidental launch

What class is this? If it's anything programming related, perhaps we can introduce Akshell into the curriculum? I'm already talking to some universities in Europe.

We are considering HTML5 offline support. So essentially you could do all the editing locally and even test/run the modules that don't have core library dependencies from within the browser rather than on the server.

You're right, we're changing the copy to "Username". We also want to encourage people to use the same username as on GitHub to make way for tighter integration with GitHub in the future.

Oh, then I've had it wrong for a while now. Thanks for pointing it out.

We're working to optimize it as much as we can. Which browser/OS/hardware are you on? If you're not on Chrome, can you try running it in that first and let me know if you see a speed increase?

It works, but there are slight rendering errors with popups. We wanted to make sure it was perfect before officially supporting it. If you're really keen to see it in IE, you can fake the user agent headers to pretend to be Firefox or Chrom

Thanks for pointing out the 500 error occurring for new apps. Existing apps are unaffected and we are looking into it.

We're changing that joystick to a VCR like play button. The commit one being a box hints at a shell or terminal, since we couldn't find an official Git icon. Could maybe put the GitHub Octocat there - what do you think?

This is pretty good timing given we (Akshell) submitted to YC last night. Bad timing in the sense that I've only had two hours of sleep.

You were right ;) I'll write a blog post about it once things calm down a bit.

Maybe the timing was just wrong? The browsers are fast enough now and users, including developers, are much more comfortable with web apps.

Maybe we should start paying you for building Akshell apps for our clients? That way you can do what you enjoy and get paid for it, while getting your CV points as well ;)

That's neat Roman, didn't know you were working on this. I'll have to put you in touch with somebody else who wanted to build an eBay app on top of Akshell.

You could write your own, the interface is fairly open and Firebug is all you need.

If you want to have the option of doing dynamic stuff later, you should try Akshell ( http://www.akshell.com ). It's really good for static sites too though, since the newly added Git support allows you to deploy with a git pull from a remo
