REPL-driven development for Javascript!

Features

  • Make changes to your running program without having to restart it!

    Is this like hot-reloading?
    Yes, but (arguably) even better, because you choose which code to evaluate! With hot-reloading, your code gets re-evaluated for every change you make, whether you want to or not.

  • Evaluate code and see the results inline - A feedback loop is faster than ever!
